Patrico, as a former HS football coach, I can recommend attending a Div 1 college as being a good 1st step. If you are still in high school and you have the athletic skills to compete at a high level, you greatly enhance your chances to a competitive college if your academic scores are high and you are within the physical parameters of that school's coaching staff, which varies by the school and the position you play. You might also be realistic in your goals by recognizing that only 1 in 12,000 HS players ever plays even 1 play in the NFL, so while in school, it is a very good idea to make sure you take advantage of the college opportunity that your skill may earn for you and prepare for a life outside the NFL should that dream not come true.
