it's damn near impossible for a physically gifted QB to transition to another position.


Wat?

Julian Edelman, Josh Cribbs, Antwaan Randle El, Freddie Soloman, Brian Mitchell all have had legit impacts at other positions. Matt Jones would have been a good receiver had he not had drug problems, and Denard Robinson looked pretty damn solid at RB last season. You've also got guys like Brad Smith who contributed.

Most guys who switch stay on offense, but Marshall's case is different because he actually has some experience at DB and by all accounts he was looking very promising back there before he got kicked off at Georgia. I think he can make a legitimate impact, whether that is at CB or S ultimately.
