Steelers' Le'Veon Bell projected to impress in contract year
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell is projected as the top running back for fantasy football in 2018.
Bell has dealt with offseason drama for the second consecutive year due to the franchise tag, and the elite running back remains in a holdout that should last through the preseason. If Bell follows the same pattern as last year, though, he'll report for Week 1 and be in game shape easily.
Our models project Bell for 1,399 rushing yards and 10.2 touchdowns on 315 carries, adding 82 receptions for 663 receiving yards and 2.8 touchdowns. We have Bell as our preseason RB1 for fantasy purposes, assuming a 16-game season.
