Ravens pick Cundiff over Graham

[faaaaaaq]

Aaron Wilson of the Carroll County Times reports that the Ravens have decided on Billy Cundiff over Shayne Graham as their Week One placekicker. Coach John Harbaugh, a former special teams coordinator, rewarded Cundiff for a superior preseason performance, instead of going with Graham's Pro Bowl track record.

 

Cundiff won the job fair and square. Graham was released Saturday.

 

The rest.

 

I'm a little surprised by this, but Cundiff won the competition on the field. His kick-offs were longer and he made all of his field goals. I just figured they would give us some BS and declare Graham the winner anyway.

Not a shocker to me. There was a reason the Bengals let him walk.
