Gronk, Forte or DMAC...Pick two.

I have the 12th & 13th pick in a standard 12 team league. I have done a bunch of mock drafts and a couple times these three guys where still on the board. I doubt this is going to happen in my league but if it does, which two do you take and why?

I'd take th RBs, especially with those two you're going to need two good backs in case one gets hurt

In years past I would definitely gone with the two RBS and not think twice about it, but DMAC's injury problems scare me.
I am leaning towards Gronk and Forte, but when I look back at my team I drafted it just seems like I don't have one "stud" player. I guess that is what you get at 12.

Gronk
Then think hard about the RBs. Someone started a thread on this awhile back. DMAC is very injury prone, but Forte has had a few nagging injuries of his own. Also, last season, Bush poached a few goal line carries and touchdowns away from DMAC. I see him doing the same thing to Forte now that he's in Chicago.
If it was me, I'd take Gronk without a 2nd thought, and probably DMAC after.

Yea Bush being on the team does not scare me that much b/c if you go look at his numbers last couples years he really doesn't get the ball on the goal line.

so how many rushing attempts will bush have this year?
Think they gave him 14 million to run it 12 times per year?

Ok, well just count that as a plus for DMAC then.
I had looked up the numbers myself, over the last 4 years, DMAC has started 45 games to Forte's 60. Forte is definitely less of a risk, but if DMAC can stay healthy through a whole season, he is a beast.
When he went down last year, he was leading the league in rushing yards, and I wanna say it took a couple weeks before anyone caught up to him.
