2017 SuperDraft - NYCFC Thread

[LionNYC]

- Two Generation Adidas on our books for 2017 that won't count against the cap.
- We've lost half of the GAM we got through the Poku sale to Miami FC. (I'm thinking we actually lost all of it with the Sean Johnson trade. If only MLS would tell us transparency numbers on trades for 2017 that occurred before today).

Now, if we can just offload Saunders for anything today, I will be ecstatic.

Why are we on for the number 12 pick?

 

[ALBNYfan]

Did we make another trade? We're showing up for the 12 pick on the stream.

So at the end of the day we traded our 2017 16th pick in 2015 for Poku who we developed and sold for a $750K transfer fee and then took $250K of that to buy the 2017 3rd pick and drafted a true prospect who could help us on the pitch in Year one and has upside.

Then bought our pick back for $75K and picked a prospect.

I like it.

The kid looks so happy to be going to New York City and having Patrick as his coach...I guess Vieira got the guy he wanted...

Gorram it! I came home late from work the pub and I completely forgot this was on at this time. I'd meant to put it up at the top of the website.

Does anyone still want it up here or is it too late?

"Nice shoes kid"

LOL! DC calls time out. The stream at one point showed DC's pick as being ours.

If we do, I bet we draft Brandon Aubrey from my Alma Mater. As a CB he scored like 7 goals this past season.

A CB that scores goals?

Vieira mantra continues in 2017: It doesn't matter how many they score, because we'll score more...

Bill Hamid is injured. TRADE SAUNDERS!

Decided to do it anyway. Stream is now at the top of the page.

How about the chat box...

DC has #12. Not sure what was up earlier.

Commentators were saying DC really wanted Lewis.

 

[dannd23]

Not to be too much of a homer with Aubrey being from Notre Dame, but we really, really should trade up for him. He is top 5 talent at CB.

Good point. Honestly I'm so tired right now.

Chat is now up

We now have lots of depth up top. I totally forgot about Camargo in my previous post.

Now need: CDM, CB, LB, and maybe another CM
