NFL Draft prospect CJ Stroud dealt another blow after teams left disappointed in results

NFL Draft prospect CJ Stroud has been dealt another blow with Kentucky Wildcats quarterback rival Will Levis favourite to be drafted as the second overall pick.

Stroud, 21, went down in the estimations of NFL scouts and executives days before the draft after performing extremely poorly in a C2 Cognition test, scoring 18 per cent while quarterbacks such as Bryce Young - expected first overall pick - were near perfect with 98.

According to Caesars Sportsbook, Stroud has fallen behind quarterback rival Levis in the race to be the No2 overall pick with odds heavily in the Wildcats star’s favour. To make matters worse for the Ohio State Buckeyes star, he’s also fallen behind two defensive players as well.
