After watching the 2017 Reese's Senior Bowl, it's probably pretty clear that California quarterback Davis Webb is the only quarterback worth taking a chance on in the first round of drafts. Davis Webb was the Senior Bowl MVP and threw for 165 yards as well as a touchdown. This performance should prove that he's the best quarterback in the draft, but if not, here's a rundown of his young career:

He started his football career at Keller High School in Keller, Texas, and while his team didn't perform well, his performance sure stood out. Webb got his first chance to start as first string his Junior year in high school, and he took it on really well. He threw for 22 touchdowns with only nine interceptions. He also had one rushing touchdown.

Webb transferred high schools his Senior year and began to play on another level. He threw for 2,722 yards, 23 touchdowns, and only seven interceptions. He also ran for 572 yards with 12 touchdowns.

After his Senior, he accepted a scholarship to play at Texas Tech University where he quickly took the spotlight. In his first year there he threw 20 touchdowns and helped them go to a Bowl victory.

He played pretty solid his Sophomore year but suffered an injury in the middle season. He got hurt again his Junior year and was replaced by star quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

In his Senior year, he transferred to California Berkeley where he had his best statistic year yet. Webb threw for 4,295 yards and 37 touchdowns. While his team didn't play well, he certainly did.

As mentioned before he was the star of the Senior Bowl. Webb was the first quarterback to throw a touchdown in the game, and when he came in, he quickly got the South team's offense going. When he was replaced, the offense didn't perform as well.

Webb is set to enter the draft this season. With all of these great performances, it should be clear that there is no other quarterback in this draft class who is as good as this guy.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
