"it sucks" isnt useful.

number one: not enough going on. far too simple. appears to be poor quality, perhaps the effects are over done.
number two: the shadows on his face aren't working by the way youve presented the layers. make the images softer and add some larger text, perhaps in the bottom left corner. the green doesn't seem to work so well.
number three: this one is my favourite. soften the text in the background slightly, so that the opacity is light. the glasses do not work, the brightness of the glasses in comparison to the rest of the image is too bright - a bit like a tooth whitening session gone wrong. so soften this area as well. and the use of the dark blue on the image is too dark.

more work needs to be done on all three, that's all. more blending and softening is definitely needed. try to create something a bit different. they look pretty same-old at the moment. make it flow nicely and work into each other.
maybe working on just one rather than making three quick banners would work nicer for you?
