The second. I realize the third is more 'D&D', but it's the Player's Handbook, not the Dungeons & Dragons Handbook--the focus ought to be on the player characters.

Honestly, I'd have to choose "All of the above." Primarily because I DO like each piece of art, but also to annoy the heck out of the "Oh no, they're going collectible on us!" crowd.

Party Vs green dragon is going to be the winner by a fair amount.

I voted for the tiefling cover. The dragon would have won out, nice dynamic scene going on, except that the dragon looks a little goofy and we can't have that.

But it is the Dungeons & Dragons' handbook. All the basic rules are in the PHB, from character creation to skills to combat. You could run D&D with the PHB alone, but not the DMG or MM.

Anyway, I voted for Adventurers vs. Green Dragon.

You can't run a Green Dragon from the Player's Handbook. You can run a Dragonborn or Wizard from it though.

Besides, having one core book feature a scene while the others focus on their subject (in an admittedly abstract fashion, in the DMG's case) ruins the symmetry.

Definatly #3. Mainly because it resembles the cover of the Basic rulebook that was my introduction to D&D.

#2 runs a very close second.

Isn't the Green Dragon vs Adventurers the cover for the Character Record sheets?
