Why won't they put me at WR

Question

i am 6'2'' 186lbs and a freshman in highschool and have the best hands on my team and my 40 is around 5.2 and i no i can get low 5.1 but i play TE and i am big so they just put me on TE but i am highly looked at for the TE position but none of are receivers can catch. And 5.2 and 1 is pretty fast for a freshman in highschool. should i stick with TE or try to get faster and play WR

Answer 1

First off whoever said your slow is a r****d.

Now.. That's what I hate about HS football if your to tall you always end up at the line or TE! Always and the short guys always end up at Safety or CB or RB.. It's a messed up system but I'd have you at WR cause of your size and most Freshmen CB's are 5'5 and under, lol. And cause of your hands but I know what you mean.. We had this short kid today about 5'2 and dang he had it all, speed, hands and like you he was the best receiver of the group and he ended up at RB cause of his size ..  

Answer 2

I would stick with TE...............it is also a good position, as important as WR.  If not, ask the coach what he thinks of putting you at WR.

Answer 3

im telling you how it is your slow man thats why.im sure thats fast for a freshman in your school but remember your playing other schools.i played TE all the way through high school freshman year i ran a 4.7 that was slow in my school im 5"9.im sure you can become a WR for varsity later on when you get older you need to get some speed buddy thats all.senior year i ran 4.4 if i would have been taller and a bit less lighter i would been a receiver.dude i ran a 4.7 and end up at TE man why would i lie we were in 7-AAAAA division 4.7 was like linebacker speed in my school buddy 4.2 was average speed for WR in my school.

Answer 4

Cause you are slow

Answer 5

i ran a 5.3 wen i was 11 so maybe itz beause ur slow but if u can catch like u say u can dey will put u in their gameplan at TE

Answer 6

if you like to run i would say go for fulback thats what im pushin for im also a freshmen im 6"0 235

Answer 7

If you really want to play WR then I would get a little faster, and your only a freshman so you have to beat out all the other experienced players

Answer 8

i want to play WR

Answer 9
