C.J. Stroud is a 24-year-old QB whom we slot in tier B1 of our 2026 superflex rankings, carrying an expert consensus rank (ECR) of 14 and an average draft position of 154.9. Our current projection, built from Sleeper depth-chart data and a 16-game baseline, calls for roughly 4,100 passing yards and 28 passing touchdowns, plus about 180 rushing yards and 2 scores on the ground, which lands him near 24.2 fantasy points per game. The market is sleeping on him a little: his average ADP of 154.9 sits 140.9 picks behind his ECR of 14, so you can usually draft him one to two rounds after his true consensus value. The schedule also leans friendly: his playoff-window opponents (weeks 15 through 17) average a 18 defensive rank against a 21.3 regular-season mark, a soft stretch for a title run.

Draft-Value Verdict

Strong value pick — his ADP sits 140.9 picks behind his ECR.
