First rookie in NFL history to throw for 300 yards in four consecutive games.

I love having him on my team backing up Josh Allen. 2 bonafide STUD QB's!

Nice.
I have Stroud and Hurts. Might start C.J. vs. the Broncos over Jalen vs. the Miners.

Even though this play was called back on a penalty yesterday, what an amazing throw, close to 70 yards in the air.

In one league im outa contention so im looking forward to next season , being in a 2 player keeper league im keeping Breece Hall as my 5th rd pick and traded for Stroud as my 8th rd keeper. I havent really been paying attention to him as he wasnt on my team . What are your thoughts on him as a starting fantasy QB next season? Ya or Nay?
Thank you in advance for any input .

Have you read through the thread?
ZADO

Yes, some of it. Its mostly positive with some doubters . I traded for him to be a keeper . I figured guys in this thread have spent a lot of time watching him and i guess im just curious if they are going to target him a starter on their fantasy teams next season .

He’s been historically good as a rookie and looks better every week despite a few mistakes here and there. I snagged him early when Arichardson went down and plan to have him be one of my two keepers for next year. I do really see a Mahomes like trajectory for him if Houston can keep adding some offensive upgrades around him.

I'd suggest doing research and following a player before making trades in keeper leagues but maybe that's just me. But to answer your question, he's pretty good.

I’m going to skip the snark. Stroud looks like a top 5 or 6 QB.

If his name was Bryce Young people would be asking if he's QB1 in dynasty

I was actually getting ready to hang up my cheat sheets and call it a day after 25 years of playing, but then i came to my senses and just dove in the trading pool for next season. Someone offered him to me for D.Henry , i jumped at it based on the chatter about Stroud, i guess im just asking the sharks to reaffirm .

-I'm just showing you this isn't coming out of the blue for me.
-I think Tepper is a major problem for the long term success of the Panthers.
You're entitled to feel differently, I understand

All good buddy. At first I thought your post was some sort of troll given all the media coverage CJ has garnered so I answered it as such. For a rookie to be mentioned in the MVP conversation, I'd say you landed one of the best QB prospects since Manning or Mahomes. He really is a joy to watch.

How were these two not drafted in a keeper league is mind blowing especially if you can’t keep off waivers. I assume they were drafted and dropped early season.
well if you are doing a rebuild I think Stroud is a nice base to build off of. Hes young and seems to have a good sense for the game. You certainly could have done worse.

Thanks to that performance, Stroud is now atop the NFL in passing yards with 3,540 passing yards on the season, making him the first rookie to lead the NFL in passing yards at the end of any week since at least 1950. The last rookie to lead the league in passing yards for an entire season was Davey O'Brien, the fourth overall pick in the 1939 NFL Draft by the Philadelphia Eagles. O'Brien, like Stroud, has ties to Texas since he won both a college football national championship and a Heisman Trophy at TCU before leading the NFL in passing yards as a rookie.

Seemed like regression was due but not like this!

Not much he can do when Dell, Collins, and Schultz were all out
And he was getting no time to do anything.

Yep and the weather had a lot to do with it in the first half, then concussed. Nightmare of a game.

If Tennessee beats them, wonder if they will shut him down?
Wrigley
Footballguy
He’s still a rookie, he needs all the reps he can get
karl.Racki

But why risk.. Concussions can be tricky and why risk possible longer term problems?

I had to drop him today. Didn't want to, but all my WR's are hurt (Keenan, Nico, & DJ Moore) Hoping Moore plays, but I still need another guy and it's the playoffs so can't go with any empty roster spot. My bench is stacked and yes CJ was literally the best choice to drop. I have Josh Allen so that paired with CJ's concussion, and the fact that Texans are without Tank Dell and probably Nico Collins, I never would've played CJ anyways
Also, Nico and Stroud were full participants in today's practice.

Probably not a great year for the S2 testing company.

He’s so good. There are always things around a QB to give them the launching pad ( in this instance a good OC ), there are some QBs that are that good they can overcome crap around them and there are some that were no doubt good whose careers got killed by being drafted into a terrible ball club. Stroud is just so accurate and composed though, he would be one that would probably overcome, but give him just average everything and he looks like a million bucks.
S2 test stopped dead in its tracks. Prototype size, composure/accuracy and the ability to at least move with your when needed = winner. Dont fall for well constructed and packaged narratives ie Bryce. I remember in the Lions thread mid season last year when I asked about Stroud it was we either get the chance to take Bryce or no one at all. What chance do we have when NFL teams don’t get it right half the time

Ryans and Stroud are going to dominate the division for the foreseeable future.
A reminder that mocks can be really wrong.

Let’s see how he does next year if he gets a new OC
massraider
Footballguy
Every OC looks better than they are when the QB can make every throw, and hits guys in stride, and makes big boy throws when the pocket is collapsing.

Which seems likely. Slowik will probably be collaborating with Ran next year.
