On a recent appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, writer Ryan McGee and McAfee discussed what makes Stroud and the recent wave of successful college quarterbacks different from those 30 years ago. "C.J. Stroud is ... great," McGee said.
The Houston Texans are one of the most entertaining football teams currently, and second-year star quarterback CJ Stroud plays a big role in that. After an impressive 10-7 campaign a season ago, including a postseason victory before losing their second game into the playoffs, the Texans decided to go all in around their current core. By bringing in productive veteran talents paired with young, rising stars, Houston is ready to compete at the highest level.

NFL rookie minicamps have concluded, so most teams were able to get an early look at new quarterbacks. Five of the six first-round picks from the 2024 NFL Draft could start in Week 1. Franchises are more incentivized than ever to play rookie quarterbacks as soon as possible. In this salary-cap sport, the greatest advantage you can have is a good young QB on a cheap contract.
