Tight End vs. Fullback: Which Football Position is Right for You?

Question
Hey there, Coach. I previously asked which position you thought I would be most suited for, and you answered tight end. I was fine with the idea of playing it, but my coach and teammates have been hinting towards fullback. Because I previously played O-line so I can block fine, and I can truck while running the ball occasionally. I am 6'0 and a little over 200 pounds. I'm strong, fast, and can read defenses well. Seeing as how I have 3 seasons left in high school, I was wondering if you had any tips for the position, also if you know any schools that are interested in offensive backfield players. Thank you in advance.

Answer
Dear Adam Bastug,
Are you sure this is what you want to do? A fullback can help block in the backfield but a tight-end can be a game breaker. A tight-end with speed and size can be a major headache to the defense.

There are tons of running backs around the nation but there are very few good tight-ends. A tight-end that can block and has speed is worth his weight in gold.

Your friend,
