There surely is a safe spot between these two groups where you wouldn't have to move at all, but meteorslash range is kind of huge so you better move a litte bit up and down than getting a meteorslash and die.
I may not have fully understood your layout, but it appears the taunt angle you need to use in order to get a safe spot between the tanks must be huge.

That might not in-of-itself be an issue, but when we tried to do something similar we found that the melee started getting a lot of parrys, which really hurt dps.

We ended up narrowing the taunt angle to as close as possible between the two tanks and have the soak groups positions themselves largely on the other side of each tank. This helps the melee a lot, and also allows your safe spots to come up in front of the melee.
