I have good work ethic,and i always be on time.

Also give me any ideas on how to improve.

Answer 1

First, I would say that at your age, you shouldn't commit to one position or the other. I played both ways all through high school. Now that I'm in college, I'm playing offensive line specifically, but you should explore your abilities on both sides of the ball. 180 pounds on bench that much is stronger than I was at your age, and 5.2 is faster than I was at your age. If you continue to show that work ethic on the field, in the weight room and in the classroom, you can go far with football. Just keep doing everything your coaches tell you, and you'll be fine.

Answer 2

yep, u sound good to me!

Answer 3

Yeah i guess u could play DE

Answer 4

its all about the talent

Answer 5

At your size, I would try out for a position like Safety. Unless you put on some weight, I don't think you can play those positions. If you would like to put on weight and try out for those positions, start working out a lot and start eating as much protein as you can fit down your throat without dying.
