Georgia has gone away from recruiting smaller wide receivers, and Webb fits the billing coming in at 6’2. He is a pretty polished route runner, he isn’t the fastest(he’s plenty fast) guy playing receiver. But he is able to really create separation from defensive backs, and get open. When he gets by someone, he is just looking to get into the end zone, and finds a way to it every time.

He does a good job of not getting shut down on a press coverage. He fights through the contact and then gets right into his route. Webb has quick feet, and can change direction really quickly, that is a dangerous combo for a receiver. He will be very hard to press when he gets into the program, and is able to gain more strength and continue working on his craft.
