For the Dolphins the problem is simply that while Pouncey is a very good if not borderline great center, he has far too many recurring health issues to be depended upon for a full season. Earlier this year Pouncey missed four games to start the season. Miami needs more consistency at center.
The answer does not appear to be Anthony Steen but one thing is certain, Pouncey can no longer be relied upon for a full season of work. So what do you do with Mike Pouncey?
There are not a lot of options for the Dolphins right now and after the season is over the options may not be very cut and dry.
