For the last four or five seasons, it seems the Miami Dolphins had questions to address on their offensive line. In their 30-12 playoff loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Dolphins offensive line gave up five sacks, and the offense turned the ball over on three consecutive possessions.

This coming season is no different. The Dolphins have reshuffled their offensive line in effort to improve the unit.

Former Pro Bowl left tackle Branden Albert was traded to the Jacksonville Jaguars in March so Miami could move 2016 first-round pick Laremy Tunsil to his natural position. With Tunsil moving from left guard to left tackle, the Dolphins will once again have question marks about their two guards.

Free agent acquisition Ted Larsen is expected to take over at left guard. Larsen started eight games for the Chicago Bears in 2016. He is entering his eighth season in the league.

Starting left guard Jermon Bushrod was ranked as one of the worst guards in the NFL last season by Pro Football Focus. But Dolphins head coach Adam Gase said Bushrod graded out as the second-best offensive lineman on the team in 2016.

Ja’Wuan James is beginning his fourth season as the Dolphins starting right tackle. During the offseason, Miami exercised James’ fifth-year option, so he will be in a Dolphins uniform for at least two more seasons.

Center Mike Pouncey is probably the biggest question mark surrounding the Dolphins offensive line. Last season, Pouncey played in only five games and struggled with a hip injury all season. Now, he is still recovering from offseason hip surgery and sat out of OTAs and minicamp.

The last time Pouncey played all 16 games in a season was 2012, his second in the league. If Pouncey does miss time again due to injury, it seems the Dolphins are better equipped to handle it than in previous seasons. Anthony Steen can play both center and guard and so can Larson. Miami also drafted Isaac Asiata, who can also play some center if the team needs him to.

Although the Dolphins have brought in new faces to reshape their offensive line, questions still linger about how much the unit has improved. While these questions won’t be answered until September, Dolphins offensive coordinator Clyde Christensen loves team depth along the offensive line.

“Now we have a bunch of guys who can swing inside and play center,” Christensen said in a press conference last month. “We added Larsen who’s one of those guys who can swing inside for short periods of time and give us some center help, if we need it, and compete at the guard position. I feel good. I think we’ve got some good, solid players in there. I think the competition will be high, which always makes people better, and we’ll come out of the thing with, I think, a good, deep inside bunch, which will be great. I can’t stress enough that (with) the good teams, you have competition. That’s the deal. The more competition, the hungrier . . . All those things add to some intensity to practice being better, to all those things.”
