Question

I'm 132 pounds 14 years old i'm fast 5'9 but i'm skinny i can hit i'm ok at tackling and catching i can cover people I'm NOT afraid of getting hit i can break tackles and juke and I CANT THROW

Answer 1

Water boy. Towel boy. Headset boy. No, really, probably wide receiver, corner or safety. Maybe as a runner on special teams.

Answer 2

The classroom first because you can not write. Education is everything not football. Then the waterboy until you proved that you can apply what you learn in the classroom. Then the bench like any other newbie or rookie to learn the game properly. Then you may get in doing mop up to let me see what you have learned and how your additude has been during this learning process. Then you will WORK your way to second string based on your progress. Then maybe starter depending where you are at when the starter spot comes open and who else has developed in the same position as you. Somebody may have past you. Also your personality plays a big role. Football is a team sport not a individual sport. Just because you think your good doesn't mean the coach does. You may end up being a career Madden football player.

Answer 3

I would have to say CORNER BACK because your 132 pounds and they don't have to be heavy your also fast which is really good and 5'9 that's tall for a 14 year old and if you can hit and tackling and catching that's really impotent and covering people as well

Answer 4

You might want to try punt and kick-off returning. The reason is that position is going to require you to make the decisions that will tell if you would be better suited for RB or WR or if you should focus exclusively on defense.

Being fast is one thing, but if you don't have the vision to see the open hole, or the patience to wait and set up your blocks you might be better served focusing exclusively on getting your footwork sound and learning to back-pedal and working on your hip transition as a cornerback. There are guys 5'9 playing corner in the NFL, Tye Hill was drafted in the first round this year at 5'9.

Answer 5

I have been coaching high school football for 9 years now and the only way any coach could answer that question is to put you through some drills to see what your potential really is. I have heard allot of kids telling me that they are good at hitting or catching a ball but when put through some drills they are put at a position other then what they expected to play. Hang in there and when ever your coach asks for a player to step in always be the first to volunteer at your given position.
Good Luck and have fun

Answer 6

You sound like a receiver or a cornerback.

If you can break 5 flat in the 40 - I'm a defensive coordinator...
I'd prefer to see what you could do on defense as a cornerback first.

I was a High School coach for a few years...so...show me you can hit and I might think about you at safety...later.

Never on the line like defensive end unless I was desparate - you're too small..

Good luck

Answer 7

I dont even know how you play, anyone can write how they want to protary themslves as, if you showed up I would make you ride the bench in the beggening and than let u play...your short so u could be a running back but look at some nfl players steve smith is 5'9" and plays WR

Answer 8

I assume you are a sophmore in high school so by you senior year you should weigh about 150 to 155 pounds ..based on that I would probably use you in the defensive secondary and possibbly on punt/kick return.

Answer 9

Wide reciever, or if you're strong enough for a 130 pounder at Defensive End.

A kid on my team weighs 150, 5' 10" and hes our best D-Lineman

Answer 10

I would put in as either a RB or a WR or even as a QB which every fits ur skills the best. I might also put u in as a Def from time to time.
