Unless we trade away picks, we will pick two players on the 15th. We may pass during the second phase of the draft.

Nycfc has 4 picks in 4 rounds. I say they make all 4 picks. Preseason camp will determine if they stay.

The first two rounds take place on the 15th in Philly. The 3rd and 4th take place via the always fan-friendly teleconference several days later. Teams may pass during the secondary part of the draft. Last year only LAG passed in round 4.

The draft is also part of the biggest US soccer conference. All the important soccer people are there. Youth coaches, mls people and even leaders of supporters group. The actual draft is also a platform for supporters groups to show force.

Oh boy, I love the top-secret and not at all suspicious fan friendly teleconferences!

Are there any stand out players you want to see? Where the players from? US Soccer Development Academies?

Well since every good player has decided to go to Europe or stay in school, I am not getting my hopes up at this point. There is only 1 consensus #1 and Orlando is going to take him. Top prospect forward out of UCLA said he was staying in school today.

The GA guys were announced today
The list is led by Nick Besler. I was only familiar with two of the other 7 on the list.

I thought Cyle Larin would be on the list as well. http://americansoccernow.com/articles/mls-improves-offer-signs-uconn-star-cyle-larin
That article makes it seem like the draft is a waste of time since the best prospects don't even want to be drafted, though like mentioned in comments it may have to do more with CBA but still how many players that have been drafted (say past two drafts) are atill part of an MLS roster now? Percentage wise ? Anyone know?

If Conor Donovan signs he may be worth a shot? U-20 defender just named to the CONCACAF championship roster. Would almost certainly be one for the future though, and I'd imagine we're looking for more immediate impact in the first round
I don't see us letting Cyle Larin or Cristian Roldin go, but I have been surprised by every draft at this point. Roldin seems perfect for Kreis
dont we have one of the Last picks? and isnt Larin projected to be in the top 2?
oh shit my bad...we have pick #2 wow Im an idiot

I've read rumors that we're interested in Larin if Orlando doesn't take him
