When you consider the depth at this time last year, Zach was the clear starter, Connors the backup and Leggett was the potential contributor. Synjyn was trying to hold a spot at A-back, a crowded position. As it turned out, the misfit Synjyn took over at B-back when Zach couldn't go and played like he belonged there.
This year Patrick Skov assumes the role of Laskey as the reliable grinder and Marcus has the opportunity to develop his running skills and make an impact. Marcus is more athletic and fluid than Zach, Synjyn and probably Skov. I hope he performs well at the position and has an exciting finish to his career. I think we are in at least as good of shape at the position as last year when you additionally consider Lands-Davis and Marshall.
