I have 10th pick in a 10 team snake draft head to head points league.

Should I take 2 rbs? A qb and Rb?

I've never drafted last in a snake draft. TIA

For the most part, I've been going WR/WR from the 9/10 spot and been very pleased with the teams I get.

But that's me personally, I'm approaching this year with a heavy hand for WRs if I'm late in the draft.

If you don't feel comfortable with that I'd get Ball/Murray/Lynch?/Foster and then an elite WR.

ETA:
Just do some mocks using different strategies and see which outcomes you feel most comfortable with.

Without knowing what the first 9 picks are before you, we cannot answer this question.

Best player available

Strategy is for losers unless you're budgeting in an auction format

Know the players and that's all you need. Don't put a restriction on what position you're going to take

I don't think this is entirely true. I think it's good to be prepared and know ahead of time what each scenario might net you. Whether you go RB/RB or WR/WR or TE/RB, etc. And from that you can know what route would probably be the best. Now if you've determined that going WR/WR has been your best bet, for the most part from the last pick, and a Forte or Lacy fall to you then, obviously, you deviate. But you should have a general feel of what route gets you what outcome.

I just picked 12th and picked Murray and D. Thomas. I'm really happy with these picks.
