  Ravens | Battle at kicker about to begin    Wed Jul 22, 02:17 AM

Jamison Hensley, of The Baltimore Sun, reports Baltimore Ravens PKs Graham Gano and Steven Hauschka will be competing in training camp for the team's kicker job. Both kickers have hit over 80 percent of their attempts this offseason and the battle is currently too close to call. If the two fail to win the job, the Ravens have not ruled out a return of PK Matt Stover.

Footballguys view: There are more than enough good kickers to go around in redraft leagues, so you can ignore this battle unless you play in dynasty leagues because Stover was only the 13th highest scoring kicker last year. For those of you that play in deep dynasty leagues where owners hoard kickers to get a ransom from teams that suffer injuries at the position or have bye week problems, we like Hauschka to be the eventual winner.
