Answer 1

Sounds like your in a good position for your size and strength, you may want to try defensive end as with your size and speed you would probably be a bit much for most 13 year old O-lineman. Also would have to agree with one of the others that if you are that big and fast you would be pretty difficult to stop as a running back as well, if you have good balance and can change direction well. If you want to get noticed and have aspirations of continuing after High school I would suggest staying at middle linebacker or giving running back a go!

Answer 2

If you are one of the fastest on your team I would suggest strong safety. As a middle line backer you want to be quick and aggressive. If you are "fast" you will want to utilize that. At 13 yers old I would not limit yourself to one position.

Answer 3

If you weigh 180 pounds at 13 years old, you must be one of the biggest kids on the field.  If you're also one of the fastest, then middle linebacker seems right for you.

Answer 4

You might have a career in the CFL at Middle Linebacker in  a 3-5 defense.

Answer 5

if your hands are good safety or slot back. If you are agile enough running back. If you can run hard without getting tired I would think Special Teams and Offense.
