Static IP address : assigned via router vs dhcpcd.conf ?

[/RaspberryPi]

Is there any need or benefit to manually assigning in etc the static IP address, if it is done so through the router already? I just took the IP address my router assigned to the PI and put it as static on the router, and it seems to be doing the job, but the last thing I would want to do is to have some tricky misconfiguration causing security errors or intermittent issues.
