William,

Re - "How does rolling forward keep you from being Put. I thought the option holders can exercise anytime they wish."

They can, but why would they IF there is still time premium in the Put? More advantagous to sell the put and them buy the stock with the proceeds. If they just exercise, they lose the time premium.
