Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of C. J. Stroud [No Huddle Purple] #ND-3 sell for $239, only $4.00 above the $235 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($217) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
