Webster is a strong offensive tackle, who provided blindside protection for Hardee High School. His film is filled with him bodying opposing defensive ends and linebackers and providing crucial sealing blocks on run plays. He has a great first step in pass protection and is intelligent enough to read and react to when a linebacker drops back into coverage and provide additional protection along the line. His greatest assets will be his strength and persistence while blocking, and you can tell this from the way he enjoys getting pancake blocks.
