Answer
Hello,

It is hard to pick a position for someone without the privilege of having seen them workout. But just on description, you might fit as a slot receiver. Conditioning is the most important thing right now. Then Start working on the proper catching procedure; hands extended away from the body, in a diamond, catch and tuck the ball away. Then You can start working on running pass routes.
