BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB1
ANALYSIS: Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud has taken the NFL by storm. The rookie superstar is the QB7, averaging 19.6 fantasy points per game this season. He has scored 19 or more fantasy points in 55.6% of the contests, including two straight.
Stroud has completed 61.6% of his pass attempts for 2,626 yards and 15 touchdowns, compared to only two interceptions. Furthermore, he has been a threat in the run game. The rookie quarterback has 22 rushing attempts for 86 yards and two touchdowns this year.
The former Ohio State star has been the QB2 over the past two weeks, averaging 30.4 fantasy points per game. Two weeks ago, he had a historical performance in the win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, totaling 470 passing yards, five touchdowns, and 41.8 fantasy points.
Meanwhile, the rookie has an excellent fantasy football matchup in Week 11. The Arizona Cardinals have surrendered 18.1 fantasy points per game to quarterbacks, the sixth-most in the NFL. Furthermore, this matchup has one of the highest projected totals this weekend. Stroud should keep his recent hot streak rolling against the Cardinals.
