Adam Schefter (ESPN) is reporting the Baltimore Ravens are closing in on signing former Cincinnati Bengals free agent K Shayne Graham to a one-year deal, according to league sources.

Graham is the the 5th most accurate kicker in NFL history and the first Bengals place kicker to make a Pro Bowl. The Bengals did not attempt to resign their most prolific kicker in franchise history following his one year franchise tag contract.

Graham struggled throughout the 2009 season, but some of the issues can be put on horrible long snapping play that was a thorn in the side of the Bengals the entire season.

The final straw that sealed the fate for Graham as a Bengal was his play in the Bengals Wild Card home playoff loss to the New York Jets. Shayne missed two field goals, including a 28-yard attempt that would have cut the score to 24-17 late in the fourth quarter.
