I believe this transition is really going to work out. He isn't going to make the pro-bowl or anything but I believe he will be able to actually play well and contribute.
He isn't a fast twitch guy but has excellent reaction time to the snap, and really good football strength. He was dropping into coverage way too much last year which is his weakness. While playing at end, he will be able to go forward which is his strength.

I agree, I think he has a chance to be a higher impact player along the line. In college his strength was his strength seems built more for a leverage player than one who is athletic in space.
Preston Smith on the other hand...he seemed to me to be a guy who was masterful and unsung along the Dline in college, but has shown the ability to transition as more of an "in space" pass rusher type. I would have never thought that...
Im hoping Trent can contribute, of course this is his very last shot to do so...
