Lardarius Webb Position Change In The Future?

[Ravenoid]

Jim Leonard is small for a typical safety, 5' 8" 188 pounds. Web is 5' 10" 182 pounds. Reed is 5' 11" 200 pounds. Web could be a fantastic free safety. To waste his talents by making him a nickle back or second string is crazy. You can't have 2 players start at the same position so the Ravens will have to do something. Web is too good to not have him on the field for 3 downs. Web has great ball and tackling skills and is tough to block. He won't knock anyone out but he'll take them to the ground for sure.

Jimmy Leonard is the ex-Raven that Webb reminds me of , though Webb has superior physical skills , I believe. Both have strong fundamentals and that ability to be around when you need them - 'playdar' is what I call it.

I see Webb as a fulltime safety more when Reed is gone , but wouldn't mind if he gets some snaps there this year too , as long as our CB injury situation gets straightened out.

Harbs has said he likes the big , physical CBs , so Williams and Smith are probably the locks when both are healthy. That leaves Webb on the bench too much , as you said.

I LOLed at your username and avatar. Thanks man.

*Edit - also love the "playdar" term. Some guys have it, some guys don't.
