7,300-8,000

Martin Laird ($7,900)
Making six of his last seven cuts is good for Laird dating back to February, as are two T9 finishes to go along with a T11 and two more of T32 or better. He offers nice upside at this price point.

Keith Mitchell ($7,800)
Mitchell has been inconsistent this season, but he’s not been playing poorly at all as of late. He has six-straight made cuts with four T34 or better finishes over that time, three finishes of T26 or better and two of T6 or better. He’s worth a look.

James Hahn ($7,600)
After missing three-straight cuts, there’s normally no way I would include Hahn in these fantasy golf picks. However, after he finished third last year at the AT&T Byron Nelson, and that’s enough to give him a look.

Johnson Wagner ($7,500)
Not only has Johnson Wagner made his last five cuts and 8-of-11 on the year, but he’s coming off two great finishes with T20 at the Valero Texas Open and T13 at the Wells Fargo. At this price on DraftKings, you might want to ride the hot hand.

Aaron Baddeley ($7,500)
Baddeley has only made one-third of his cuts this season, but is in a string of making seven out of his last eight. Over that span, he’s also finished T26 or better three times and T16 or better twice.

Vaughn Taylor ($7,300)
Taylor missed the cut at THE PLAYERS, but has seen some good finishes this season with T16 at the Valero Texas, T20 at the Genesis, and T11 at the Phoenix. As such, he might be worth a flyer at this price on DraftKings.
