9 Fantasy Football Breakout Wide Receivers: Florio's Mid-Round and Later-Round Picks

You may have heard that breakouts win championships! It is why I am a big believer in taking upside shots in the middle and later rounds of your fantasy football drafts rather than going after safe floor plays. If you can build a safe core in the early rounds, a breakout player or two elevates […]

11 Fantasy Football Breakout Running Backs - Florio's Mid-Round and Later-Round Picks

Breakouts are what win fantasy football championships. Those players that you get in the middle and late rounds of your drafts who turn into one of the best players at their position are what win leagues. It is why I believe you should be chasing players with that kind of upside with most of your […]

Fantasy Football Breakout Tight Ends: Florio's Middle-Round and Later-Round Picks

I have said it in each part of this series: breakouts win championships. It is why you should be targeting high upside places in your drafts. If you want breakout quarterbacks, running backs, or wide receivers, I've got you covered. A breakout, though, is different at different positions, especially at tight end. Sure, everyone would […]

10 QBs and TEs Who Could Put Up Video Game Numbers for 2025 Fantasy Football

Everyone wants that player who will put up video game numbers in fantasy football. For QBs, that means one who can run. Just look at Joe Burrow, who put up video game passing numbers last year. He finished as the QB3 in fantasy PPG, well behind the top two. It is possible that Burrow, or […]

Florio's Fantasy Football Breakout QBs: Player Outlooks and Analysis for 2025

Breakouts win fantasy football championships. I wrote an entire article last year about chasing margin gains in ADP, which is an approach that works well for fantasy baseball but not for a game like fantasy football. That is especially true at the quarterback position. There is a clear-cut advantage with the top five QBs, but […]

7 NFL Players Who Could Put Up Video Game Numbers for 2025 Fantasy Football

Everyone who has ever played Madden or any other sports video game knows that you can put up crazy numbers. Imagine if you got those stats in fantasy football? You would surely dominate. Unfortunately, your create-a-character is not in fantasy drafts. But having Ja'Marr Chase or Saquon Barkley was the closest thing to it last […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report - Snake Bitten D-backs, Frustrating Phillies

The calm before the storm. There was a bullpen shaken up this week by another injury. Others continue to be more of a committee. But there has not been a huge shake-up at the closer position. Not yet at least. The trades are coming and when they do, this position will be turned on its […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report - Closer Changes Are Coming

This week is Fourth of July. First of all, I hope everyone reading this has a great holiday! I hope you get to eat lots, have some adult beverages, or however it is you like to celebrate, with whoever you choose to celebrate with! The Fourth of July is always a big day on the […]

Florio's Fantasy Football Breakdown for the New York Jets Offense with Justin Fields: Outlooks for Breece Hall, Garrett Wilson, Mason Taylor

The two most important aspects of an offense are the play caller and the quarterback. When breaking down an offense, you should always start from the top down. But what about when a team has a new playcaller? Or a new QB? The New York Jets will be dealing with both. They have a first-time […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report - Closer Changes in Atlanta, Chicago, Philly

I was away last week, scouting bullpens in person. Well, that is not true. I was just on vacation, but I did see a Mariners game! And while trades have yet to shake up the position, we are getting closer and closer to that point. We are just a couple of weeks from the All-Star […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report: Martinez Hurt, Helsley Struggling, Palencia Walked Off

I love writing about bullpens. I have been doing so for RotoBaller for years now. The one issue is that when you tend to focus on changing bullpens, you often find yourself writing about the same few teams. This week is different, though. Sure, there are some of the same usual culprits. But some teams […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report: Yankees, Giants, Rangers, Cubs Closer Changes

This was an eventful week when it comes to bullpens. I have a feeling I will be saying that a lot in the next two months. We saw a top team place its closer on the IL, while another team announced a change at closer. Then there are those teams that have not yet made […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report: Rangers, Cubs Change Things Up

Bullpens. Take your eye off them for a couple of days, and everything changes. I am sure many of you traveled, or hung with friends and family, or partied and barbequed this weekend. However you opt to celebrate Memorial Day Weekend, I highly doubt you were watching every bullpen. Don’t worry, I got you covered! […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report: New Closer In Philly, What Is Going On In Chicago?

We are quickly approaching my favorite time of the fantasy baseball calendar! The trade deadline is two months away, but we will (hopefully) start to see trades happen before that. No position is more impacted by trades than the closer position. There will be current closers dealt to teams where they are no longer in […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpens Report: Changes in Texas, Chicago, Arizona, More Coming?

Bullpens are many things, but one thing they are never is boring. Just this week alone, we have seen several changes to late-inning arms on teams that should see many save chances. Whether it be from injury or poor performance, the closer carousel just keeps on turning. If you are a save-needy fantasy baseball manager, […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpens Report: Panic in the Bronx, Changes in the Desert

It is only May, and we have seen several big-name closers already lose their gig. Some were short-lived and have since returned. But what about under the bright lights of New York? Plus, there are several teams now dealing with injuries that have shaken up their late-inning bullpen usage. If you need saves, there is […]

Florio's Football Show: Where are Rookies Being Drafted?

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report: Devin Williams, Emmanuel Clase Fantasy Baseball Outlooks

This is perhaps the biggest week of bullpen news this season. Two big-name closers who fantasy baseball managers paid a very hefty price on draft day to obtain are currently without their teams’ closer gig. Fantasy baseball managers everywhere are surely not panicking! There are also a number of teams using a closer committee that […]

Florio's NFL/Fantasy Football Scouting Report: RJ Harvey, Quinshon Judkins, Kaleb Johnson, and more

If you have heard one thing this NFL Draft season, this is likely a very deep running back class. While there are a few I think stand out even in a great class, there certainly is no shortage of options after the top names. Running back, more than any other position, is impacted by landing […]

Florio's NFL/Fantasy Football Scouting Report: Kyle Williams, Isaiah Bond, Jaylin Noel, Jayden Higgins, and More

This wide receiver class may not have the high-end talent like in past years, but it sports a lot of depth. Several receivers who should go in Rounds 2/3 could be immediate fantasy contributors. These players, though, are more landing-spot-dependent than the high-end talent. With many of these receivers, I look for one big thing: […]

Florio's NFL/Fantasy Football Scouting Report: Tyler Warren, Colston Loveland, Elijah Arroyo, and More

I won’t lie, in the past, I would not do much scouting on the tight ends heading into the NFL Draft. Last year, I watched Brock Bowers; prior, I watched Dalton Kincaid or Kyle Pitts. I would watch the ones who had first-round hype, and that would be it. Why? Because in the past, tight […]

Florio's NFL/Fantasy Football Scouting Report: Travis Hunter, Tetairoa McMillan, Luther Burden III, Matthew Golden, and Emeka Egbuka

My favorite position to watch each NFL Draft season is wide receiver. First, it is just the most fun position, in my opinion. However, they also control their own fate and fantasy value more than running backs. A receiver needs an opportunity to see the field, but if they do their job and get open, […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report: Changes in Arizona, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Los Angeles, and more

Bullpens are interesting. Some weeks, not much changes. And others, it feels like if you blink, you miss out on a whole bunch of changes around MLB. This week is one of those weeks. Not only did we see some big names land on the IL, but we also had several players return in the […]

Florio's NFL/Fantasy Football Scouting Report: Ashton Jeanty, TreVeyon Henderson, Omarion Hampton, Cam Skattebo

This running back class has it all. There is elite talent, several backs who could be long-term NFL starters, and depth for days. You should expect to see at least a couple enter the top 30 running backs picked in redraft fantasy football leagues. In dynasty, the first round of rookie drafts will be littered […]

Florio's Football Show: NFL Draft Prospect Talk with Emory Hunt!

Michael F. Florio is joined by Emory Hunt, who has scouted over 1,200 players in this class, to talk all things NFL Draft. Emory explains why the Shedeur Sanders disrespect is out of control. Is Ashton Jeanty being hyped up too much? They talk that and a whole lot more. Plus, Emory gives his most […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report: Finding Elite Ratio Relievers

This was not a wild week for bullpen changes. Still, there are always some moves we need to keep an eye on. This is a good week to get out in front of some potential changes, such as a former All-Star closer potentially returning soon, who you can likely grab off the waiver wire. This […]

Florio's NFL and Fantasy Football Scouting Report For Jaxson Dart, Jalen Milroe, Tyler Shough, Quinn Ewers, Kyle McCord, Dillon Gabriel

There are two quarterback locks to go in the first round of this year's NFL Draft. If you want to learn more about Cameron Ward and Shedeur Sanders, I wrote an entire scouting report on the two of them! You can read that here.  But those two are not the only other QBs in the […]

Florio's NFL/Fantasy Football Scouting Report: Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders

Every year, the focal point of the NFL Draft is the top quarterbacks. While this class fails to bring the depth that last year brought, there are two who are getting the vast majority of hype this year: Cameron Ward and Shedeur Sanders. These two are sure to go early in the draft and will […]
