Where to play?
Question
Hi Arthur, im 17, 215 pounds and 6 ft. im from england and am old enough to play in my local league now, i was wondering wether you could help me choose where i would be best suited. i have to admit i am not a quick runner but i consider my self to have great hands but i dont know whether i would be quick enough to play tight end for instance. i dont want to play on the o-line, i also would like to play linebacker but would probably say i am to slow for that aswell,
any advice/help would be great,
thanks, Nathan
Answer
Hello Nathan,
It would be hard for me to discuss a position for you, without seeing you workout. Unfortunately, with your size initially, most coaches would look at you as a potential lineman. Work on your quickness,agility and your hands. This will increase your chances at tight end.
