Ravens CB Corey Graham hit an escalator in his contract, raising his 2013 salary from $1.8 million to $2.05 million.
Graham started every game from Week 10 on after the Ravens were searching for a replacement at left corner for Lardarius Webb (torn ACL). His play was one of the main reasons the Ravens were able to advance to, and eventually win, the Super Bowl. Entering the final year of his deal, Graham could conceivably start again next season with Cary Williams set for free agency. Feb 4 - 8:13 PM

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

After visiting the Seahawks over the past weekend, free agent CB Corey Graham is currently meeting with Lions officials.

Graham would be getting more interest if NFL teams thought of him as a capable cornerback. He would be a special teamer/dime back with the Lions.

Free agent CB Corey Graham will visit the Seahawks Sunday.

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

Free agent Corey Graham is expected to leave the Bears in search of more playing time on defense.

A former Pro Bowl special teamer, Graham graded out positively by Pro Football Focus in 89 defensive snaps last season. Wherever he ends up, however, his main role will likely still be as a special teams linchpin.

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

Bears signed CB Corey Graham to a one-year contract.

Graham likely found the open market unkind after failing to earn defensive playing time last season. He'll return as one of the top special teamers in football.

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

The Bears are "adamant" about wanting to retain free agent CB Corey Graham, according to beat writer Brad Biggs.

Back in March, coach Lovie Smith ripped into Graham's 2010 performance. Apparently, the team has changed its tune. The Bears are likely trying to retain him on the cheap.

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

Coach Lovie Smith indicated that the Bears have no plans to increase free agent CB Corey Graham's role on defense if he re-signs.

"Corey has been more of a specialist for us," Smith said. " He’s gotten his opportunity to play for us, and didn’t play as well as we probably would’ve liked." Graham is fully expected to depart if he hits free agency.

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

Free agent CB Corey Graham plans to look for opportunities elsewhere to play more defensive back.

Graham led the Bears with 25 special teams tackles in 2010, but only played three snaps on defense all season. "I don't want to be known as just a special teams player," he said. "I want to go somewhere to get a chance to compete."

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

Corey Graham is currently the leader in the battle to be the Bears' nickel corner.

As long as Danieal Manning doesn't lose out on the strong safety job and shift back to corner, Graham shouldn't have a problem winning this gig in training camp. His only competition is journeyman Tim Jennings and practice squad candidate Josh Moore.

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

Corey Graham admits that Craig Steltz is "a step ahead" of him in their competition to be the Bears' starting free safety.

Steltz has been a safety most of his life, while Graham hasn't played much there since high school. Graham would give Chicago more range in center field, but Steltz is a bigger hitter. This battle will extend late into August.

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

Corey Graham will work at free safety during the Bears' minicamp this week.

Chicago is serious about Graham at this position, despite his solid play at corner last season. Graham has the size, hip fluidity, and tackling ability to be a standout Tampa 2 safety if he can hold off Josh Bullocks in camp.

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

Bears backup CB Corey Graham will be given a chance to win the starting free safety job this summer.

According to coach Lovie Smith, both starting safety spots are up for grabs this summer. Graham could be used on passing downs, but he's likely to be a liability in run support.

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

Bears CB Corey Graham will head back to the bench with Nathan Vasher set to return to the starting lineup Sunday.

The local rags believed that Graham had played well enough to take over for good, but Vasher's job is secure for now. Graham may take on nickel back duties if Danieal Manning's hamstring injury sidelines him, and he's expected to relieve Vasher in run situations as well.

Corey Graham - DB - Ravens

Corey Graham has "quietly" taken Nathan Vasher's job as the Bears' starting right cornerback, according to the Chicago Sun Times.

We'll see if this holds true when Vasher (wrist) is 100%, but it shouldn't come as a surprise. Graham has played well and is filling the stat sheet. He led Chicago with eight tackles and picked off Gus Frerotte in Week 7.
