Kicker soon to join the Ravens

Former Bengals kicker Shayne Graham will be signed to the Ravens soon.

Graham's career has spanned over ten years and four teams. He started his journeyman career in 2001 with the Buffalo Bills where he only played in six games and hit s out of his eight field goal attempts. Eight years later during the 2009 season, he made 82 percent of his kicks (23 out of 28).

Graham is an upgrade from the current kicker on the roster, Billy Cundiff. Cundiff only performed moderately well last season making 70% of his kicks as a Raven. Statistically this competition favors Graham. His experience and superior kicking numbers instantly make him more dependable. Unless Cundiff has a miraculous makeover and makes almost all of his field goal attempt in training camp, he will be watching the Ravens from his living room in the fall.
