Richmond Webb proved his merit immediately as the 9th overall Draft Pick in 1990, as the Left Tackle was a Pro Bowl and All-Rookie Selection, and UPI even went as far as naming him the Rookie of the Year. That year was no flash in the pan, as Webb would go on to be named to six more Pro Bowls (all consecutive) and added two First Team and two Second Team All-Pro Selections. The Dolphins still had Dan Marino, and Webb protected him as well, if not better than anyone that the Quarterback ever had. Let's say Richmond Webb earned more than one pair of Isotoners! Webb played for the Dolphins until he joined the Cincinnati Bengals for his final two years (2001-02). Notably, the legendary Bruce Smith called him the "best blocker he ever faced,” and if that is not high praise, we don't know what is!
Webb would set a record for Miami with 118 consecutive starts and seven straight Pro Bowls, would be named a 2000s All-Decade Team member, and was the 16th selection to the Dolphins Honor Roll.
