UGA football player card: DB Mark Webb

Mark Webb, Defensive Back (No. 23):

Class: Senior

Height: 6-1

Weight: 200 pounds

Hometown: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

High School: Archbishop Wood High School

Georgia Bulldogs defensive back Mark Webb is among the favorites to win the starting role at nickel or STAR corner next season. He’ll be competing with primarily Tyrique Stevenson and Divaad Wilson.

Webb started nine games at the STAR position last season. He recorded 46 tackles last season, fifth best on UGA. Webb will help UGA have a lengthy streak of players from Philadelphia. Can Philly be the latest recruiting hotbed for the Dawgs?

Webb began his career as a four-star wide receiver. He converted to cornerback during the 2017 season.

Webb may get drafted in 2021, provided he has a solid season next year.

Hard to imagine any team having more upperclassmen DB talent than @GeorgiaFootball. Seniors DS Richard LeCounte and CBs D.J. Daniel & Mark Webb are all next-level players. RS junior CB Eric Stokes is also a @seniorbowl candidate if he grads in December. #TheDraftStartsInMOBILE pic.twitter.com/Sow4qhykez
