Question

If i weigh 248 and am six foot one and run my forty in 5.4 can i be a fullback

Answer 1

I would say tightend too. Your're too tall for a fullback, you'd be running like a tree (no offense). I would say tightend because you're big enough to block but you can go up and get a ball too.  

Answer 2

I would say a linebacker position for you. with your weight, you can put some serious hits on people. Plus it is more fun to put the hit rather than absorb one.

Answer 3

Tightend

Answer 4

not a fullback ur slow as h**l

not tightend ur slow as h**l

not linebacker ur slow as h**l

not end ur slow as h**l

interior line is ur future and ur to slow for that too

Answer 5

Can you be a fullback?  Sure if you coach wants you to, assuming you can block.

If you are running a 5.4 40 in high school, you are slow most tailback should be running 4.5 they are going to run up your back.  You might be best suited for right or left tackle.

Answer 6

First, it depends what level you are talking about.  High School, Div. I or II NCAA, etc...

But, 5.4 is too slow for any backfield position and your height is not tall enough for a TE, unless you are a freakish 13 year-old.

I would pursue the o-line and possibly middle linebacker.  Any end position, defensive or offensive requires speed.

Either bulk up for a line position or work on the speed to get around 5 flat mark.

Answer 7

Ya. you can really play anything you want. i'd recommend O-line though.

Answer 8

Yeah. Fullback is very similar to center or a pulling guard, so you have to be quick as well, but as far as size, you're about right.

Answer 9

Why are you slow? Given your weight and size, you shouldn't be that slow. You should, in fact, be an athletic OLB
