Are any Bell owners without Connor planning on stashing him until his return?

Trade or keep. And ask for top dollar if you trade him. If you cant get it keep him. When he returns you have the best fantasy back around. Some of the stuff I have been reading if it can all be believed he will return probably before week 4. 

Just curious (as a Bell owner) what have you been reading suggesting a possible week 4 return?

Depends on your league structure. I'm not convinced he'll instantly be the starter if he returns, or at least not the bell cow he used to be. I think it would be a time share. There's an argument for running him into the ground, but a counter argument that playing two great backs (assuming Conner continues to impress) will keep both fresh and give them a better chance at winning. That's not even getting into locker room politics and "punishing" him for the holdout by giving him less playing time. Or the possibility Bell will be out of shape. 

 

12+ teams with deep benches, you have to keep. IR slot you have to keep. But 10 teams, or short benches, I'd probably take almost anyone for him that upgraded a weakness on my team.

Agree. I think it's a longshot at this point that he plays again. And if he does at what capacity or how much? I probably wasted my time with him but it was worth a shot at the time.
