Long term, would it be wiser to play Diaz at first instead of catcher, because of how good his bat is?

We saw something similar in Houston with Craig Biggio.

The Houston Texans are turning heads after their upset of the Jacksonville Jaguars last weekend. But it's not just that, QB CJ Stroud recently won offensive rookie of the month and the national media is taking notice.

ESPN's Dan Orlovsky called Stroud the best “mover in the pocket” since Joe Burrow, and said the Texans' 2023 Draft Class might be the best in the NFL.

Be sure to watch the video above as we break it all down!
