What's the point of converting them to TIFFs if you're not getting any true extra information as a result of the jpeg to TIFF conversion? Aren't you just making the files unnecessarily larger without any true gain?
Every time you play with a JPG file you lose some detail.

TIFF's on the other hand are lossless.
