Well, technically... those numbers dont tell us anything about your actual football ability and knowledge. If you just moved from a cave in Albania, never played sports, and dont know what football is, I doubt you'd make it.
But assuming those numbers are true... and you have some knowledge of football - such as playing well in high school... then sure, you can make it... although a 5'9" 17 year old weighing 310 pounds is probably quite unhealthy. Size wise, you're like a younger Aaron Gibson... and he's made it to the NFL - although he's now a bench player in the AFL (his height/weight combination just became too... ugly? He was about 6'6" and 390 pounds by the time he was released in the NFL).
But honestly, if you have to come online and ask a question like this... you probably dont have what it takes.

Being 5'9" will kill you unless you grow and fast up to about 6'4". what you need to do is lose about 50 lbs and with your size you'd be a good fit at LB or fullback and benching only 335 is pretty good considering your ages and size but if you can lose the weight and still bench 335 then your a good fit for a team looking for your abilities the key for you is to lose weight your way to huge for your height

Do pilates, it is extra safer and it is extra stable. Oh and purely run around with an incredible great sack of water bottles, filled up it is. Like 10-20 x 2ltr bottles. carry them on your palms. raise weights in case you like to finally end up as a physique builder with the extraordinary itchy palms from touching public weights. you do no longer would desire to make your fat into muscle, you purely would desire to get used to regardless of occurs on a soccer container. so as that ought to comprise particularly some working - i'd propose working in sand, pushing human beings away - sumo training would be good for that, prepare dodging - Bruce Lee became into the Hong Kong Cha Cha Cha champion, retaining a ball - make it slippery, catching a ball - make it slipperier + prepare juggling with the ball, think of of what would ensue next - learn chess, heck purely play soccer. And undergo in suggestions, you're able to do it!

dude all that stuff is good... but what really matters is if you can play. there were kids at my school benching a kazillion pounds and running 4.3s and 4.4s but hardly played because they just sucked. there are slow people in college that are good... take john abbate from wake forest a couple years ago as an example. he was slow but he could play. you have the physical tools, but none of us would be able to tell you if you can make it in college because we dont know how good you are.

DUDE, GET ON THE CARDIO AND LOSE ABOUT 70LBS AND YOU WOULD BE A KILLER FULLBACK. IT HASN'T BEEN MUCH OF A GLORY POISTION LATELY, BUT THE DAYS OF THE FULLBACK ARE RETURNING. ITS WHAT I PLAYED AND I WAS 5'9, 240LBS, WITH 315 BENCH. BUT WHAT IS JUST AS IS YOUR LEG STRENGTH IN FOOTBALL. THATS WHAT HELPS KEEP YOU UPRIGHT IN ALL OF THE PUSHING. IF YOUR LEGS ARE STRONG YOU CAN LEARN TO USE YOUR SHORT STATURE TO YOUR ADVANTAGE BECAUSE YOU HAVE A LOWER CENTER OF GRAVITY. LETS YOU LIFT THOSE BIG D-LINEMAN AND MOVE EM OUT OF THE WAY. SO MY SUGGESTION IS STARTING DOING SOME SQUATS ASAP IF YOU WANNA PLAY IN COLLEGE.

well honestly there is no way to tell....
it could read "i'm 6'5 and 255 lbs of pure muscle and i bench 400+" and i still couldn't tell because if you simply suck at football, then it doesn't matter your size. but size wise if you ARE good and very quick then i could see it. possibly D line if your agressive and smart.

Yes, but probably a very weak D-1 school (The SEC for example) or d-2 school.
