"writeup": "Houston asked very little of Stroud last season and got about that much back, 217 passing yards a game, a 14th-percentile aggressiveness rate, and a bad-throw rate in the worst sixth of charted quarterbacks. Ball security was the clean part, zero lost fumbles all year, and his 0.77 CPOE says the underlying accuracy has not gone anywhere. The scoring settled at 15.5 points per game across 14 starts, streamer territory, and the market has priced him at exactly his consensus projection, QB23 both ways, around pick 166. That makes him one of the few quarterbacks in this range carrying neither premium nor discount, so the draft-day decision reduces to whether you believe the 24-year-old who attacked downfield as a rookie still exists. The 2025 charting shows no trace of that player, and Houston's middling 16th-place implied total is not the kind of environment that forces the issue.",
