I am about 5'8 or 5'9, on the skinny side, but I'm pretty muscular... I'm fairly good at football, but I'm afraid I'm too 'small' or too skinny to make the team...

Believe in yourself, and never let anything or anyone get in the way of your dreams. There are plenty of small guys that have made it to the NFL. Steve Smith is only 5'9. If you truly have the talent, then size won't matter.
