There are 20 players here who are trying out at multiple positions. That's a good thing because if you can prove to the scouts that you are versatile and athletic, you can improve your draft position. It also says something about the desire these kids have to play in the National Football League -- they want it so bad they'll play anywhere they can.

Here is an up-to-date list of the 20 players trying out at different positions. Eighteen of them are defensive linemen also working out as a linebacker:

Jonathan Babineaux, Iowa
Vincent Burns, Kentucky
Dan Cody, Oklahoma
Trent Cole, Cincinnati
Chauncey Davis, Florida State
Andre Frazier, Cincinnati
Johnathan Goddard, Marshall
Erasmus James, Wisconsin
Khari Long, Baylor
David McMillan, Kansas
Shawne Merriman, Maryland
Eric Moore, Florida State
David Pollack, Georgia
Ryan Riddle, Cal
matt Roth, Iowa
Justin Tuck, Notre Dame
Demarcus Ware, Troy
Jonathan Welsh, Wisconsin

And two are other players at other positions:

Matt Jones, Arkansas (QB and WR)
Antonio Perkins, Oklahoma (DB and WR)
