According to Fantasy Insider's DFS model, our "studs" are the highest projected scorer across the slate, while "value" picks provide the most "bang for your buck," meaning they are expected to perform well relative to their salary.
Conversely, a "fade" is a player considered to offer lower value for money, based on their expected score relative to their salary. For budget-conscious strategies, "cheapie" options refer to the best value players at lower price points not already mentioned.
In fantasy sports, understanding value—assessing a player's potential output against their salary—is crucial, as players scoring high relative to their cost are key in crafting the optimal line-up.
The "Pts/$1K" metric shows the predicted points for every $1,000 of a player's salary. A higher number indicates better value, making it easier to spot players who could outperform their cost.
Conclusion
When building your PGA RBC Heritage teams, consider starting with a value player like Adam Scott. To secure one of the highest projected scorers, Scottie Scheffler is a strong option. If you're seeking budget-friendly choices to free up salary cap for more studs, explore our cheapie options, including Christiaan Bezuidenhout.
On the other hand, according to our model, Ludvig Aberg is one of the lowest value options on the slate, suggesting you might want to limit exposure to him if putting together multiple line-ups.
