I don't see any reason to compare Stranger to the bands output. With a couple of exceptions they are too different to compare. Stranger (along with Jersey and These Days) is and always will be in my top 5 abums of all time.

I don't see either as weak album personally, but beauty is on the ear of the beholder. They are not as strong as Stranger, but some great songs and I still enjoy both very much. I've listened to Aftermath more than any BJ album since Have A Nice Day I would say.
