With 5 days left until DCU season's begins, we break down Sean Franklin's game and whether he can be counted on to hold down the right back position.

As we approach the start of the 2016 season, there has been a lot of questions about the back line that D.C. United will walk out onto the field against Querétaro F.C. on Tuesday night and against the L.A. Galaxy to begin the Major League Soccer season on March 6th. Sean Franklin, the veteran right back who will turn 31 on March 21st, has been the preferred choice on the right side of Ben Olsen's defense since he was selected by United with the first pick in the 2013 Re-Entry Draft.
