The one that you like, there are superficial standards, which really don't exists when you are good. If you can run fast, cornerback or wide receiver. If you are confident mentally any position is good. Never let anyone tell you any different. You could be 4' 2" and be a running back. You don't see it, because people tell them they can't. Then you get the Spud Webbs of the NBA, making there own rules and defying statistics. Go for the one you want the most. And Believe you can, despite what others may think or say!

I think your only hope is to go out for kicker - and that's only if you have any kind of leg strength (you can develop this if you don't have it now). I'm sure there are guys out on the football field who are maybe only a year or two older than you who are twice your weight and at least a half a foot taller than you. If you play offense or defense, the other players will target you because of your size. There are all kinds of penalties against pounding on the kicker, though. I think that's pretty much your only hope for remaining upright (and unbroken) on the football field (unless, of course, you undergo an extraordinary growth spurt in the next year, but even still, it would be kicker for now).

Good luck!

Try defensive end. A good spot for you.
Most defenses at that level of the game will make the DE contain. That's your job - make sure the running back trying to get outside you stays inside you, so if you aren't going to make the tackle, someone else from mid-field can.
Containment is crucial, since a lot of running plays at that level of play are sweeps around the outside.
And on passing downs, the job of the DE is usually to blitz the QB and hit him HARD.
I loved playing DE. :)
Offensively, Tight End is a good start. While it is mostly a blocking position, you'll have the benefit of knowing how the DE will react (because you are one), and can sometimes catch a pass too.
Good luck.

It depends on your physical ability. QB's are the fast ones. You probably can't do defense, since they are all the big guys..Talk to your couch. He will have a better idea after seeing you in practice.Good Luck.

Note:I also suggest you get in shape and bulk up. Lots of supplements; NO2, Kreatine, and high protein diet. In another words, lots of weight lifting!!

If your were going to play football you need stamina, you have to run and lift and train and everything, it takes dedication play football, I play football, it's hard work. If you want to play than you have to be serious about it. If you train, i'd probably put you at halfback.

Strong Safety. Still need to bulk up (Protein Diet and Weight Room) and maintain your speed (practice, practice, practice). Speed, Size and Strength are important but "heart" in another factor. So know thy self...if you have heart then got for it. If you know you don't have it...you may want to consider golf. Good luck!

Bench Warmer. Man, at that size and weight you are going to get freaking creamed. You like your knees? Your back? Chill man, you are just not football material at that size.

Find another sport.

Football is the best!!!! Try being QB, then again, u dont have experience, so try defense. If you are a fast runner try receiver.

Defensive bench or left out.

You should be a striker on a soccer team. (Fast and no hands even allowed!)
