Answer 1

Well, if you're fast and can catch, I'd go with either Wide Reciever, or Cornerback.  Especially at your size, you're tall for being in 7th grade.

Answer 2

Possibly a Corner or linebacker. If you wanna hit go with linebacker. If you wanna catch and sometimes hit go with Corner

Answer 3

Ask your coach, be upfront and honest and ask them what you can do to get better during the season and during the offseason.

Seems like you want to play defense so defensive back with your size, maybe running back or safety if you are  only kinda fast

Answer 4

wr  or      db  

Answer 5

Corner or WR seems like the best place to start. Then the coaches can see what you can do and move you accordingly.

Answer 6

I would say either wide receiver or defensive back. You say that you are a good defender and are somewhat aggressive. From there I would say probably corner. If you find that you are a bit slow for corner, the next place would probably be safety.

Either way... it wouldnt be a bad idea to hit the weight room the summer before your 8th grade year. That is when I started and trust me, it made 8th grade a lot better cuz i was stronger than most of the other guys.

good luck man.
