L.A. Reed to safety

Has anyone heard about the position change for L.A. Reed?  The latest thing that I have heard is that Reed will be moving to safety.  At 6'2" and 203 lbs, he is a massive guy.  We all know he can run, because he played receiver for 3 years.  I beleive he runs around a 4.5 forty.  Reed has been one of our top flankers on the punt team for 2 seasons now.  We have all seen that he can pack some punch on the hits.  At SMU this year he had one of the best hits I saw all year on a guy returning a punt.

I am really excited about L.A. Reed moving to safety because it became obvious late in the season the Ed Britton was a better receiver.  I think that L.A. will make a smooth transition because he knows how to make plays on the ball and he has a receiver mentality.

Any thoughts?

moving to safety
I hope he moves to safety too! That way he can hit the opposing team instead of wanting to hit his teammates! Just kidding! I think it would be a great thing if he can make the transition, which he should be able to.

Shades of Darden?
Would be great if he is able to follow the path of Tony Darden, our QB turned receiver turned DB who made it to the NFL as a DB.
