Answer 1

Your best bet is to lose about 20 lbs and switch to Line Backer

Answer 2

wish u all the luck

Answer 3

good chances

Answer 4

It depends on who your competition is.  But never give up the dream!  Anything can happen, especially in this country!  Good luck!

Answer 5

by what you have said it looks like your chances aren't good... but don't give up

Answer 6

dude you first need to make it to college, then size isnt as important as technique. you can see many different syles of dlinemen, you cant compare richard seymour's strenght to freeney's agility, just ask your coach h**l tell you the same thing

Answer 7

Just worry about college first. NFL is a long way away.  

Answer 8

Depends on what kind of shape you are in and how well you do this season.

Answer 9

well if you could keep your speed and gain another 25 pounds you'd be pretty good maybe turn any fat into muscle (if there is any) if your big and still fast you will stick out more, just gotta out play the other dt's remember Micheal Jordan didnt make his varsity bball team,maybe just play d2 and go to NFL combine

Answer 10

At that weight, you would definately have to grow at least 4 inches to have a shot as a lineman.  The chances for guys even bigger than you are still slim.  The best advice I can give you is stay in school and learn a trade that will keep you interested in life.  Good luck. Dont stop dreaming.
