If a team thinks that they are getting a Pro Bowl center like his brother then they are planning on doing a lot of coaching to get him to that point as a center or they are just looking at what his brother did and expecting Mike to do the same thing because they are twins. (Herm and Carl would draft on the later philosophy I'm sure.)
As of right now, he should be looked at as a pure guard.
Same thing with Wisniewski of Penn State. Lots of talent, but he struggled a bit when they moved him over to center his junior season. They moved him back to guard for his senior season.
Between Pouncey, Wisniewski and Rod Hudson, there is some really nice guard prospects at the top of the draft for their respective position.

Yep. Pouncey can be an All-Pro guard. He'd be an adequate center, but I wouldn't draft him in the 1st to play C.
