Stroud is performing as a top ten quarterback even if it is at the bottom of the top ten. So, what do you pay a quarterback that is playing around the level of a top third overall quarterback in the league... He is getting 60+ million dollars a year at this point and he will deserve it based on the numbers.

Positive signalProjection

Stroud's top-10 QB performance supports his 60M+ annual contract valuation.

Stroud is performing as a top-ten quarterback despite mixed efficiency metrics. His passing yards rank 2nd (1714), passing yards per game rank 4th (285.7), net yards per attempt rank 8th (7.0), passer rating ranks 11th (100.9), and success rate ranks 11th (48.5). The source's preponderance-of-evidence analysis places him at the bottom of the top-ten tier, justifying his 60+ million dollar annual contract based on overall performance level.
