I'd hate to just let all that nice prot gear go to waste...
Do I just use him to help my group level up to his level?
Do I just forget about him (i'd really rather not. =\)
Do I just level up without a tank till 31, using a 5th DPS instead?
Do you have a 70? Something that can run 4 characters through an instance quickly? Use that to level the others to 31, then add your prot pally back in.

I used my 70 druid to run my 4 shammies to level 25, where I had a warrior waiting. I then ran with the warrior up to 45, where my prot pally was waiting. 45-69 was prot pally + shammies.

Low levels are faster to run than to quest -- at least pre-2.3. Once you get past SM the instances take longer for a 70 to run you through and quest XP is faster.



Both your 1st and your 3rd option are definitely doable.
