I have no problem paying up to Wooly next time I'm on a computer.
We never had a cash money bet.

We heard this was gonna happen from II in the podcasts since January. Anybody think he can make the transition?

I can see that. Probably the position he should have played in college. And the Giants are desperate for OT help!

depends on how he embraces it...his attitude seemed to be one of his biggest hurdles

If he works hard he should be able to. He played Tackle in high school. And most recruiting services thought his best position was OT.

He said he'd never play OL like a year ago when asked. This will not end well.

Even if he flips a switch and becomes a good interior pass rusher? I agree with you, but I think that NFL teams would let him play D line if he really steps it up these next two years.

Agreed. Well Ademilola will be a great replacement for him, with MTA being a phenomenal backup.

No, but he said it. It was discussed during an interview with him pre-draft. I'll try to find it.

He was quoted in a Rochester paper recently, that he was excited about the opportunity to switch to OL, and he felt he would be able to succeed, as he has worked there before and been told he has the quick feet and hands to do well.

Glad he's changed his tune, but it sounds like it's to save face since he has no other shot on making the team. I can't find the article and I did search - so take it or leave it, but I remember him being interviewed and saying he disliked playing OL.

Funny what a few million bucks will do to a guy.

can't get on twitter from work...but sampson tweeted...he has been pretty up front that he has no interest in this
then mike vorel said he didn't sound thrilled when he talked to him
so there is the inconsistency we are used to from jerron

Hopefully Jarron shows enough to make the practice squad. Obviously needs development at OT.

Jarron Jones signed to Seahawks practice squad - Story | WROC-TV
Cable has a track record of converting DL to OL. Nice landing spot for Jarron

He has a track record of doing it. It's not necessarily a successful track record though

the guy is given no help by the GM in drafting/signing FA's. He's been doing alright with what he has been given. They had a basketball player at LT last year!
