Why CJ Stroud Is The Best Quarterback In The 2023 NFL Draft | Ohio State Football 2023
from College Football with Sam · host Samuel Recker
CJ Stroud will be selected in the top 10 of the 2023 NFL Draft in approximately 1 month. A unanimous 1st round pick and a consensus top 2 quarterback, Stroud started for the Ohio State Buckeyes for 2 years, where he was back-to-back Big Ten Player Of The Year and 1st Team All-Big Ten Quarterback in 2021 and 2022. He also received 2nd-team All-American and 3rd-team All-American honors in 2021 and 2022 respectively. In his career, he threw for 8,123 yards, 85 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions, and he went 21-4 as a starter. Stroud is at his best when the system around him is functioning at a healthy level. When placed in a well-oiled machine with good receivers and a solid offensive line, Stroud is the best quarterback in the nation by a mile. His accuracy, arm strength, and release are nearly perfect. However, when the machine has loose bolts or is facing a superior machine on the field, Stroud has struggled with improvising and seems hesitant to use his athleticism to escape the pocket or to stay in the pocket and take a hit while delivering the necessary throw. However, his weaknesses were not visible against Georgia (the most NFL-ready defense Stroud has faced in his career) in the Peach Bowl, and this performance, along with his consistent reputation of success, makes him the most NFL-ready quarterback in this draft class.
