From the episode

He's now QB11. He's been really good this year despite, you know, Nico has missed a game. Higgins out for the year. Jaylen Noll now on IR. The offensive line, not good. The running game, not good. And Stroud just looks like a better quarterback than he did last year, just kind of across the board, honestly.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

CJ Stroud rises to QB11 despite injuries around him; looks better than last year.

Jumps to QB11 in the latest dynasty trade value update with a big rise; playing really good football despite significant roster challenges including Nico Lapidus missing a game, Higgins out for the year, Jaylen Noll on IR, a poor offensive line, and a weak running game. Stroud looks like a better quarterback than he did last year across the board, and at 25 years old, he's the first young quarterback with real upside you encounter after the clear top 10.
