Last season, the biggest debate in fantasy football heading into drafts was whether or not running back Le'Veon Bell was worthy of the first overall pick, let alone a first-round draft pick.

Typically, there are two types of RB2's fantasy players will target in their draft: a known, or an unknown quantity. A known would be somebody like Marlon Mack.
