Perhaps you bought into the Andre Johnson farewell tour in Indianapolis. Or thought the steady hands of Anquan Boldin could cover the backs of your more volatile players. Or you believed Jonathan Stewart's late-season surge in 2014 would carry over into 2015 (right there with ya, by the way). Or you figured Roddy White would actually catch some passes in a revitalized Atlanta offense. Whatever the reason, if you're team is failing to produce it's time to cut the dead weight of your struggling, big-name veterans. Yes, I know they've done it before and it can be hard to turn someone loose who has helped you in the past, but this is when you have to go straight up Bill Belichick and cut players earlier rather than later. The extra space on your roster will allow you to target players with higher upside who could be on the verge of breaking out into more steady fantasy contributors, like the Travis Benjamin's and Leonard Hankerson's of the world. You need points now, and waiting for these elder players to turn back the clock is ill-advised.
