Todd McShay has C.J. Stroud going No. 1 in 2023 Draft

Yes, the 2022 NFL Draft may have just wrapped up last weekend, but people are already looking ahead to next spring. This includes ESPN's Todd McShay, who has dropped his first mock draft. Already? You better believe it.

Per McShay, he thinks the Houston Texans will take home the No. 1 overall selection. And with that, he think Houston will end up rocking with Ohio State superstar C.J. Stroud.

WAY-too-early 2023 Mock Draft is here! Shaping up to be an exciting class of QBs (5 in this first round projection), WRs (5), RBs (2) and DL (6). Two reminders: 1. I did not create the draft order! 2. Prospects should not base future decisions on this! https://t.co/YLfv5eESGN

The Texans are in desperate need of a new QB and Stroud would no question excite the fanbase. There's still plenty of time until next April, but let the Stroud to Houston rumors begin.
