Why
- C.J. Stroud is QB12 on our rest of season ranking: 16.9 projected PPR points a game over his 9 games left through Week 17, 0.1 a game above a replacement QB (16.8).
- Week 9: 17.7 projected PPR points (@ LAC), QB7 on this week's board. That defense allows the 30th most fantasy points to his position.
- He played 100% of his team's snaps over his last games, through Week 7.
- Across Sleeper leagues he was dropped 24,150 times and added 28,343 times in the busiest 24 hours we measured this week.
Rest of season figures are projected PPR points a game from Week 9 through Week 17, measured against a replacement level starter at his position. Shares compare his last game with his games before it.
Who to add instead
If you need the spot, the best add at his position is Tyler Shough (NO) instead, 16.8 projected PPR points a game rest of season. He drew 85,600 adds in his busiest 24 hours this waiver cycle.
