LB to safety?

[Linebacker47]

I was considering switching from LB to safety. I am a decnet LB, 2nd string to the best LB on the team. This is on the JV team. Next year is a different story, this years starting varsity linebacker are all junior. At the very best I could be 2nd string.
Would it be hard to switch from OLB to safety? I am currently 6'0", 177 pounds. I bench 185, squat 320. The only place I am lacking is speed/ vert. 40: 5.2-5.3, vert:22-24. Do you think I could play safety? How much can I decrease my 40 time by next summer(start of football practice)?

My best friend just switch from Inside LB to Safety and he's really enjoying it. Its definitely doable if you have the speed and the vision. Might be harder for a OLB but I don't know I always played DE or FB/RB.

In my opinion you should do whatever is necessary for you to get playing time, if that means switching positions you should do it.
