I like the analysis here.  This was his draft analysis.  I think he will do well at Safety.

Lol If this page is an indication of Webb as a safety then I feel worse now than before. The link returns a 404 response indicating the page wasn't found.

Nah it didn't work. Maybe it's my browser. I don't need to see it, though. It was just a joke anyway as I found it funny how coincidental those circumstances were lol

I think the one thing everyone has failed to mention is the downfall of Webby since he cut his dreads!!! I'm pretty sure they were some source of power for him.

Yes, Webb is the modern day Samson.

Yeah Webb is actually a pretty decent run defender because he can tackle. He may not be the brick wall in run defense, but he knows how to wrap up. He's reliable in that regard. Not perfect of course, but much better than pretty much everyone else in the secondary since he joined us. 

I disagree with this statement, Most replays show Webb slipping off and dancing with players. Not hitting and tackling.

hmmm from what i saw webb seems to be a willing tackler.

Heck he seemed to recklessly throw his body around to make a tackle which most likely lead to all those nagging injuries he keeps getting.

I actually hope they use him as the deep centre fielder to keep him from making to many tackles close to the LOS.

which Webb are you watching? surly not ours.

In fact I think between Weddle and Webby, we have a really strong safety tandem. Both are pretty decent in coverage, instincts, turnovers, and both are sure fire tacklers. I believe we need to let the TC play itself out and see who our two best safeties are. In any case, having these two at safety it is easy to disguise who the strong and free safety is for that particular drive and that creates confusion for offensive planning too.

I am not sold but I think its the only meaningful fit for Webb.  Webb I think still has football IQ and great hands, he will get some INTs.  I won't count him out until I see what he does this year.  A lot of people are down on Webb but I remember his good years and the promise of being being a top 5 CB in the NFL... he got injured lost speed which hurt his CB stock but at safety he might surprise a lot of people.
