I've been trying all types of running shoes this year and experimenting with various feet "landing" positions. I have some running shoes that have very little heel-toe drop and others that follow a more traditional, thick heel padding design. I tend to land midfoot when I run, so I personally prefer a shoe that has minimal heel-toe drop. I also maintain a short stride length and a high cadence (which I believe is the real "secret" to avoiding running injuries).
I plan to run my next half-marathon wearing a pair of Skechers Go Run Ultra. These shoes offer maximum cushion, a 4 mm or 8 mm heel-toe drop (depending on the insole that you use), and are very light. They're designed to promote a midfoot strike, so they feel very natural.
