Bottom Line on Mark Webb
Webb is a physical, hard-working safety that isn’t afraid to get his nose dirty and challenge larger offensive players. He is limited though by lack of footwork and speed, as well as not having the greatest of hands for interceptions. Webb’s bread and butter are short-range, explosive tackles at the line of scrimmage where his strength and physicality can come into play. He is also versatile in playing multiple defensive positions. A team will take a chance on Webb due to his performance at the Senior Bowl.
