The MLS SuperDraft has made some positive changes, but questions remain on the relevancy
Throughout the years, numerous fans and the media alike criticized the MLS SuperDraft. Like other American sports leagues, the draft gives college players a chance to make it in Major League Soccer, and aim for a professional career. However, MLS is a rarity when it comes to the world of soccer by having a draft.
In the past decade, the SuperDraft’s importance for building a team has clearly diminished. Many teams tend to forgo picks in the fourth and final round.
