Fantasy Alarm is taking a different approach to help our subscribers build successful DFS lineups.  I will be giving you my personal core plays for this weekend's tournament.  These players listed below are my three favorite top tier, middle tier and value tier players for both DraftKings and Fanduel.  They will be at the core of all my lineups for this weekend's Wells Fargo Championship and then I'll use my playbook to fill out the remaining spots in my lineup. 

Make sure you read my full PGA DFS Playbook for the Wells Fargo Championship before using these core plays.  You can also take a look at my Weekly Tournament Projections at any time.

We’ve got another difficult course this weekend but the field is actually better.  You’ve got eleven of the Top 20 players in the world and four of the Top 5 in this field.  The likes of Justin Thomas, Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, Xander Schauffele, Webb Simpson, and Rory McIlory.  Overall, I’d say this tournament is pretty top heavy but I don’t recommend trying to fit two of these 10K and above players into one lineup.

If you are building a stars and scrubs lineup, I’ll likely start with Jon Rahm and pair him with either Hovland or Will Zalatoris.  If I’m going to go balance, I’ll start with either Webb, Hovland or Will and go down from there.  There is a lot I like in the mid-tier from the Niemann, Homa, and Day range and down a little further to the Cink, Glover and Varner range.  I only listed a couple guys in the under 7K range in the playbook because I’m trying to stay out of there as much as possible.

Let’s say I plug in Rahm to start my lineup, I’m likely going to dip all the way down to Niemann or Homa before heading down into the Tringale or Lowry.  Most likely then I’ll grab either Dahman or Varner and wrap it up with two guys in the 7300-6800 range.  That’s pretty much how my primary lineup will look this weekend.

This new format of core plays I think is way more valuable to our subscribers because it lends more to teaching than just copy and pasting.  A set of these players will be in each one of my lineups this weekend and then a mix of players from my playbook will fill out the rest.  

If you have any more questions, you can leave them in the chat or hit me up on twitter @Drew_Phelps83.  Good Luck!
