Poll: Who is the Ravens' midseason MVP?

ESPN.com will be rolling out their midseason reports soon, but let's hear what you think about the Baltimore Ravens' season so far. With the Ravens reaching the midway point of their season, who has been their most valuable player so far?

Here are the top five candidates:

QB Joe Flacco: He's on pace for career highs in passing yards and touchdowns in a season. In five wins this season, Flacco has completed 68.3 percent of his passes with 13 touchdowns and three interceptions.

RB Justin Forsett: The biggest surprise on the team ranks fourth in the NFL with 571 yards rushing. After Ray Rice was cut and Bernard Pierce struggled staying healthy, Forsett stepped into the starting role and has produced seven runs of at least 20 yards (second-most in the league).

LB C.J. Mosley: The rookie first-round pick is the leading tackler on a defense that has allowed the second-fewest points in the NFL. Mosley is the only defender to post at least 70 tackles, an interception, a fumble recovery and a forced fumble this season.

CB Jimmy Smith: He's been the best player at the weakest position for the Ravens, ranking first in passes broken up (eight) and fourth in tackles (28). Smith is the seventh-rated cornerback in the NFL by Pro Football Focus.

WR Steve Smith: He leads the NFL in 100-yard receiving games with four and is tied for second with four catches of at least 40 yards. Smith's 277 yards receiving on third down rank second in the league.
