The Dynamo, intent on completely rebuilding a team that was mostly disastrous in 2016, had a big day on Friday in LA. They made a big trade, drafted three players, and acquired a veteran defender who will likely start next year. It also set the stage for one final flurry of moves, which could include the acquisition of the long-awaited starting-caliber international No. 10.
Going into the day, Houston held the number four pick in the SuperDraft. I, and many others, expected them to choose center midfielder Jackson Yueill, a player who would fill a big need as a creative, ball-moving No.
