It's really personal preference in what you play. Play whatever you like to play. And look on www.madpaintballer.com. Theres great articles on how to play the different positions in speedball.

I'm actually pretty impressed people didnt go "omg search noob"
but it's a valid question

I'm a pretty big guy too, but I prefer mid to front. I think back would be boring, but it is important someone does it.

a back player is suppose to lane at the start of the game and lay down lots of paint through out the game.
