Answer 2

Personally, I believe that you can benefit from make a position change. Based on your height, I believe that you will make a very good fit at cornerback. You have the ideal height for a high school cornerback.

Answer 3

You should stay slot reciever. Corner is a very tough position to play. I used to be a corner, but then it was so tough for me that I made the adjustment to be a safety. I'm 5'9. You seem a bit short for safety. But hey you never know.

Answer 4

I am the same height as you, and I am also playing for my high school. I would think that you would be a good height for Tight End, Cornerback, and Line Backer.

Answer 5

Stay at WR. I you play corner your going to be at a huge disadvantage against some WR's. As long as your quick and you run good, crisp routes you'll be fine.
