Would I make a good linebacker in the NFL?

Question

i am 180lbs i run a 5.1 40 yard dash, i was defensive player of the year for my school, im 5'10 and i had 16 sacks and 93 tackles in a 10 game regular season... i love to tackle people and i also had 2 forced fumbles and 3 interceptions in the season

Answer 1

You're so full of yourslef you'll start smelling your farts for fun....nope!

Answer 2

Well, right now you are 40lbs or more too light and 4 inches or more too short.  

But good luck!

Answer 3

if you dont know then the answer is no.

edit - i guess it's ok to not know yet if you're only 14. sounds like you have a lot of potential and upside.

Answer 4

well at 14 your would suck

grow and keep lifting put all your heart into and maybe then after u go to a top 25 college then u may make the practice squad

Answer 5

just keep working and you will be you got to give everything you got all you should do every day is eat a bunch of healthy meals and work out twice a day, im sure yall are doing two a day practices but just give 100 percent at everything you do

Answer 6

Keep up with what you are doing.

Get your time under 5 .

Start working out with weights.

Continue to play at linebacker...and don't be surprised if someone, somewhere in your college career,  tells you to play safety.

It's true, you're a little small for linebacker.

You might be a little slow.

But - I'm thinking you're in High School and you've done some fantastic things.

I won't take that from you - keep up the great work.

Just remember it isn't as much about how GREAT you are...but what you bring to the college team and how best they can use you. So, it's possible you'll be asked to play something different.

And I hope you go for it. Because

THAT's what it takes to get into the NFL.

PS: Congratulations on EARNING Defensive Player of the year. That's a great honor.

Answer 7

im near u only a year younger and high school coaches talk to me quite a lot so i say and hope yes

Answer 8

no

Answer 9

your tiny to be in the nfl

Answer 10

NFL linebackers are 6'2 250lbs and run around 4.7's

your numbers are good, but your speed needs work.since youre only 14 you have room to grow.

if you're unlucky and weight lift too much youll top off at 6 feet.

either way you need to start working out right now if you want to even have a shot, youve got to at least hit the 230lb mark full of muscle.

if you dont grow or put on enough muscle, dont be surpsised if people tell you to play safety, either way its also another great position.

Answer 11

nope.
