MLS Mock Draft 2016: Blues strengthen defense with sole pick

Assuming that Brandon Vincent isn't available, New York City will pick the best defender available.

On Sunday, SB Nation held its 2016 MLS mock draft. Just like in the real world, New York City only has one pick â the fourth one.

While the Blues need help everywhere, they really need it in defense. At number four, though, the best left back on the board -- Brandon Vincent -- likely won't be available. That meant we were looking at the best available talent in the draft.

We went with senior Jonathan Campbell of North Carolina. At 6'2" and 188 pounds, Campbell's got the size and ball skills to start right away.
