The last thing a fantasy football owner wants to do this time of year is bench a star player.
What fun is it navigating through the draft, trades, waiver wires and more only to sit, say, Arizona Cardinals wideout Larry Fitzgerald?
Maybe when he scored just four points, as he did on the Week 14 edition of Thursday Night Football.
Therein lies the dilemma for owners. It's easy to get attached to players who helped one get to this point. But the volatile nature of fantasy says those same players can sink the ship on their lonesome if allowed to run wild.
