A Look at Sporting’s Draft Position

The first two rounds of this year’s MLS Superdraft take place this Friday in Philadelphia, where Sporting Kansas City holds two picks, both in the first round, the 13th and 18th picks. As the years have gone by, the draft has produced fewer players that have been taken not just in later rounds, but later on in the first round as well. Kansas City already looks set to be drafting for depth on the Swope Park Rangers instead of looking for immediate assistance with Sporting KC based on Kerry Zavagnin’s comments in his interview with Bob Rusert.
