How goes your NFL Week 15 DFS lineup builds? My cash game builds are all coming from this week's DFS Playbook, but as I construct GPP tournament lineups, I find myself looking for some deeper bargains and dart-throws so I can fit in guys like Christian McCaffrey, CeeDee Lamb and Cooper Kupp. Not that I want to take too many dart-throws, but enough to make some of these lineups a bit more explosive. I will admit that I do like a number of the bargains I did have in the Playbook, but there are always more and some worthy of mention here.

 

 

If you're new to Fantasy Alarm, the DFS Dart Board is an add-on to the Playbook that I started several years ago. It came about when I was building GPP lineups and realized I needed more salary relief. As I dug through my notes to see who stood out the most among those players at a more affordable price, it hit me. When I put players in the Playbook, I am thinking primarily about cash lineup plays -- guys with a high floor who I could conceivably put into my core-group and build a lineup around. After those players, I would mix in a handful of guys who had boatloads of upside and were in soft match-ups, but I wasn’t paying as much attention to their salary as I should have. And that's where the Dart Board came into play.

Occasionally you may see a min-priced QB or TE in here, but more often than not, this space is reserved for running backs and wide receivers who are below $6,000 on FanDuel or $5,000 or lower on DraftKings. Also, while we call this a Dart Board, keep in mind that every player has been carefully researched. We're not up here picking players all willy-nilly, desperately hoping they hit. We're looking for the cheapest bargains possible who still have the strongest potential to give you at least a 3-5x return on what you pay.

All set? Great. Let's get to it and while you do, maybe give a listen to this week's NFL Week 15 DFS Show with me & Jon Impemba!
