Switch to defense and play inside linebacker. Believe it or not, defense is much more fun and exciting. Plus, you may not get the "popularity" of a running back or quarterback, but you'll definitely get respect if you can hit hard.

It takes more analysis than just body type to know what position you should play. Also, when you are trying for a high school team for the first time, it is often wise to pick your position based on team need (unless your skill set doesn't match that position.)
If your team has an all state QB and RB, its not smart to try out for those spots. Did your teams defensive captain, a LB just graduate? Fill the hole. Stuff like that.
Also, make clear to the coach that you are perfectly willing to play wherever he wants you to, anywhere from Fullback to Punter.
Your body type doesn't tell you what positions to play, it tells you what position you CAN'T play. In your case, you can pretty much eliminate the offensive line and Defensive tackle positions. Theres no reason that you can't play any other spot, if your skill set matches that position.

With your size you can play everything. Wide receiver, running back, tight end, linebacker. You can always put on or lose weight to player other positions too. But what do you prefer to be? Offense or defense?
Your best bets are at WR or RB.

Fullback or Tight End on offense. Linebacker on defense. But it also depends on where your needed.Just remember to be a team player. Good Luck!

With your size and strength you would be good for Outside Linebacker, Strong Safety, or Running Back

Running back (The second Jamal Lewis type of body you have)
QB??? (If you are accurate I guess but QB has to have the charisma, high football IQ)
However, your body best fits MLB get taller and you will be fine...

I like defense. With your size, you could make a great linebacker.
