I think this is a great move. And I think there are lots of reasons to be optimistic for Lloyd's successful transition: quarterbacks are trained leaders and usually well versed in figuring out passing games, two qualities absolutely necessary for safeties. As has already been mentioned, he's athletic and big enough to play the position, and I'm pleased that he has not opted to transfer to try to find a starting job as a QB elsewhere. Hopefully, that's a sign that he's fully invested in this move.  I think it's a great move, nod the two extra weeks of Rose Bowl practice can only,help give him a running start in the transition when he hits Spring Football.  Who knows if he will contribute right away? But I think he has a good chance to be a contributor, at least, down the line.

Regarding Ed Reynolds: if he opts to go to the NFL, I'll follow his career closely and wish him all the best. But something tells me his reputation right now is a bit inflated by his stellar year last year, with all the INT returns. The national media (likely the same ones who repeated, ad nauseum, that Hogan was not athletic) may have inflated his draft prospects accordingly. I wonder if the lofty ratings will survive NFL scrutiny. It might not be a bad idea to come back for a year and hone his skills a bit further.
