Prototype or not, Raiders’ J’Marcus Webb in position to seize starting position at right guard

Filed for print . . .

NAPA _ J’Marcus Webb realizes he doesn’t fit the prototype of an NFL guard.

He’s not built like left guard Gabe Jackson, a soft drink machine with feet. His height (6-foot-7) and wing span are classic traits of a tackle, a position he played for all of his 44 starts on both the left and the right side for the Chicago Bears from 2010 to 2012.

Yet there was Webb, continuing to work at the first-team right guard position Wednesday vacated by Austin Howard, who was moved outside to right tackle in the offseason.
