Jeff Bostic was a G. before moving to C, so in essence, the practice is not uncommon, it has been a practice around the league since I first began watching the NFL which was many years ago.

Very true, although sliding around on the O-line has got to be the easiest position switch in football. It's not like moving from safety to LB, QB to WR, or something like that.
