I like to focus on making cut % for cash, so probably going Rahm/Scheffler/Horschel/Ancer and then either Fitzpatrick/English or Kuchar/Hun An
Tournaments we obviously want leverage on the field. Especially when there's 180k entrants and 1 mil up top. For that I like to produce graphs of Top 5% vs. predicted ownership for the pricey guys and Top 20% vs. predicted ownership for everyone else.
This is an example graph. Looks like there might be some value on taking Justin Thomas and Rahm as your top 2. Definitely a fade or low ownership on Webb (for reasons above about how he's cheaper). Webb is probably a good cash play, but if he crashes we are sitting real good.
Here's the other graph links (didn't want to embed and take up the whole page)
Between 8 and 9k

Fitzpatrick and Leishman look good.
Between 7 and 8k.

Getting a little messy, but our boy Sabbatini shows up again. Brian Harman is another favorite. Betancourt, Furyk
6.5 and 7k

Again another mess of names, but Willett and Victor Perez stand out for me. Vegas, Glover, and all those other names in that jumble too.
< 6.5k
This is a mess so I'm just going to focus on the people who have 8% or greater chance of being in the top 20. The reason is, all these guys are basically gonna be under owned because they're bad and punting on a guy who has a 1% chance of top 20 is stupid.

Garnett and Landry look good. Stuard too.
For these lower values you might want to also look at some cut % you have since if you want to win the million getting 6/6 through is needed.
I set cut% >= 50 and salary <= 7k to produce this

Lot of similar names, but Bud Cauley seems like an interesting choice. High cut percentage, low ownership. Another useful one for your "dominator" could be Win% vs. ownership. It looks similar to the top 5%
I do a lot more analysis, but this is a good place to start. I use my own cut, top 5, top 20, etc. % and ownership from a couple of places that in the past have had good results.
It's likely we are going to lose money in the millionaire, but it's about setting ourselves up for a chance at a unique lineup with a non 0% chance to actually win.
