2. Andrew Luck 54%

3. Robert Griffin III 36%

One last round of polls before the season starts. We'll do this rapid-fire style, with a new post each day and 3 polls per post. Vote in all 3, and pick a different player in each one.

Love these. Keep them going.

nice to do this close to the season, but posting them three at a time can lead to wonky results.

Somewhat wonky, but they shouldn't be *too* wonky (with the way I'm calculating results) as long as everyone follows instructions and votes for their top player first, their second choice next, and then their third choice.For the #5 poll, I'm counting all the votes in the #5 poll plus all the votes in the #4 poll (except for the winner at #4). For the #6 poll, I'm adding up the votes in all 3 polls. So if you vote for David Wilson as #4 but Doug Martin wins #4, then your vote will also count towards David Wilson at #5. (If you have Wilson at #4 and then Blackmon at #5, I'll end up counting both votes towards the #5 poll, which is screwy, but on the whole the results should still end up within a few percentage points of what they're supposed to be.)

I'm closing the poll now, with 45 votes.

Martin is dominating the #4 poll (he was neck-and-neck with Griffin for the #3). David Wilson and Justin Blackmon are neck-and-neck for the #5, and I'm just going to call it now for Wilson, who has a slight lead. Keeping it open longer might change who takes the #5, but it won't change the fact that Wilson & Blackmon are neck-and-neck for #5 & #6, which is really all that I care about. Let's keep things moving: the next poll is up here.

Doug Martin has now won the #3 choice in the first set of votes after the voting was closed off at 30 votes!
