Football: What position should i try out for?

Question

I have played football all through high school but recently lost a lot of weight. I was an offensive tackle/defensive guard, but since i lost all the weight im not exactly sure what to try out for in college. Im not the strongest guy, but i can bench about 250 and am going to be working out a heck of a lot in college. im 5'11 and weigh about 200. Im not the fastest guy either, but i dont consider myself the slowest guy either. I can run a 220m dash in about 27 seconds, and a 60m dash in 7.8 seconds.

What position should i try out for?

Answer 1

if it is a 4-4 defense i would say outside linebacker.  if it is a 3-4 i would put you at defensive end. but that is just me

Answer 2

Dude freakin defensive end right there, your perfect for that or if not a Linebacker but d**n I'd be scared to face you.

Answer 3

Sounds like you've got decent size for either the free safety or strong safety position.  Both are always one of the unsung hero's on any good defense.

Answer 4

Line Backer Duh!

Coaches love guys who can stop the RUN!

Answer 5

linebacker maybe.  bulk up some more and try defensive end

Answer 6

punter

Answer 7

i would say go out for a small linebacker or saftey on offence fullback

Answer 8

Linebacker.

Answer 9

LB is right
