The Miami Dolphins are heading into a very interesting offseason and the offensive line looks like it will be getting a complete overhaul after the Richie Incognito-Jonathan Martin scandal, as the lineman could be traded and the team is interested in signing free agents in Eugene Monroe and Branden Albert.
According to ESPN.com, the Dolphins owner Stephen Ross is planning to meet with Martin this week and another report suggests that the team is planning to trade or release Martin. It likely would be hard for Martin to return to the Dolphins, because most of the players supported Incognito publically over him and also because coach Joe Philbin is either a liar or an idiot, as he claimed he had no idea about anything going on anywhere in his locker room regarding this situation.
Martin could be a fit in places where the head coach is actually strong and the team isn't full of backwards players and places like New England, Seattle, San Francisco and Indianapolis could be trade options. ESPN.com reports that Martin does not want to return to the Dolphins and who could blame him after the way the franchise treated him? Richie Incognito, John Jerry and Mike Pouncey ganged up on him and no one really cared at all and that likely will lead to a split.
According to Pro Football Talk, the Dolphins could look at Monroe and Albert, as they likely will need four to five new starters on the line, with Martin likely gone and Incognito a free agent. The report says that Albert has been a target for the Dolphins since last offseason and that Monroe could be an option after he was traded to the Ravens from the Jaguars.
