Answer 1

The first place you should look would be to your coach. Not only would it help open up a line of communication between the two of you, but he'll be excited that you want to learn. And in my opinion someone that is teachable is much more of an asset that someone that has skill but is dumb as a stump. Thinks about Wes Welker, not the most stud athlete, but awesome routes and incredibly smart.

The next place is to get together with your QB. Try to get in a few extra after practice route running/ball catching drills. Not only will it help you know what you should do but it'll help build a chemistry between you and your QB. And when the game is on the line late in the season where do you think he's gonna turn?

The last place you should look is on a questions board, but since you're asking... I'll give you a couple pointers. First of all, know the passing tree. Look here for a good example.

Next, watch other players (NFL and college) and emulate their moves. Off the line moves, cuts, double cuts, blocking techniques (yes, you will be blocking a lot in high school). You'll be surprised at what you can pick up just by paying attention to the position and not the entire game.

Hope that helps and have a good season.
