avoiding injuries

I'm leaving out #1 because LT is like playing with an extra person on your roster.
I thought about skipping #2 b/c SJax seems to be a good amount ahead of the next best RB, and you still get 3 of the top 26 players. I left it in to see if people agree with that.
As for the rest of the picks, I'm not sure there is a big difference in preference of where I'd want to be. The RB you get at the 3-7 spots are interchangable, and the players at 8-12, while they may have a bit of a dropoff, you make up for it with your early 2nd round pick and can get two very servicable RB's(2 of Bush, Maroney and Henry is not out of the question according to Antsports ADP).
So if you could pick where your draft spot would be, which one and why. I may attempt to trade down if I land a middle pick and am curious to hear what the consensus is.

My leaguemates think I'm crazy when I told them I'm not unhappy with 12. Really, once it got past 5-6, I started hoping for one at the end. Great 1-2 RB combo, solid chance at either a great QB and a WR on the 3/4 turn, or two great WRs. Nothing wrong there. I like 9 or 10 myself. Basically same situation as 12, you're set up for a solid 1-2 punch, but as you hit your turns, you can usually estimate what players will be sitting there for you again in 6 picks, and factor that into your decisions.
Problem is, the question was about the draft spot and an outlook on your entire roster, not your first round pick.I think everyone agree's SJax is the consensus #2. But is SJax and pick 25 a better combo than pick 10 and 15, 12 and 13? 70% of people voting said yes and I agree. Maybe I should have omitted the #2 like I was thinking about doing.
You need to also consider the next picks you have, and weigh those vs. the downgrade at RB. ie: is dropping from SJ to Maroney > going from Benson TO Portis/MJD ? And then there are more differences as the draft goes on. It's a more complicated question than you realize, but hey, I don't know if anyone would have expected you to answer differently.
