Who Do You Want In The Dispersal Draft Tomorrow?

[whill4]

Matt Dunn? As a wise man once said "Who the f*** is this asshole?"

 

[Drainyoo]

Probably to protect players. Don't want media finding out before the players even do

The players aren't on the call? This is so strange.

 

[SayWhat44]

Get to know Mathew Dunn

The way this is going at the moment, we may well have a chance at a decent second pick.

Just taking a wild uniformed guess, but perhaps NYCFC just saw too much upside with Dunn as compared to others.

EG: Delgado, Rivera, Jean-Baptiste (injuries) or Reo-Coker ($$$)

My guess is they were going to pick Kennedy, and Dunn was an 'I guess" backup.

if everyone keeps passing we get a decent round 2 pick

Very true. He is cheap and young. Whereas the other players are older, more expensive and have little upside. This move makes sense, but it's not as exciting as getting a known player who is expected to start right away!

 

[Trone]

sorry @kun , didnt see your similar post

Precisely.

Well its probably going to cause more controversy but evidently this is a matter solely down to Kreis. To point out the somewhat obvious we know he's not an idiot and presumably will explain his reasoning this evening. Or maybe MLS should do deeper research as Kreis appears to have done. As for MLS logic evidently isn't a factor (as noted in some recent comments)

I guess there was a chance in hell after all...

 

[doctorhoosier]

This is a really odd pick. Not sure I like it.

Well, i'm not against a young prospect Kreis thought had potential, can't say I know enough about him to comment though.

There isn't much to pick from. Kennedy was picked and NYCFC probably figured they need to pick someone, so they went with a cheap young kid. If he pans out, huge reward. If he doesn't small price to pay.

 

[Trone]

at least NYCFC didnt pass

 

[D_RoyJenkins]

I'm gonna trust Kreis on this. From everything I've heard and researched Jason Kreis is the MLS equivalent to Greg Popovich (NBA head coach, San Antonio Spurs). They don't acquire stars, they acquire unknowns and develop them into stars. Matthew Dunn is most likely a player Kreis will groom for the future

 

[Drainyoo]

They only went 1 round?

 

[SayWhat44]

Well Kennedy is still in play FC Dallas won't keep 3 keepers. Someone is getting traded.

 

[kun]

Baptiste still available?
