The Major League Soccer SuperDraft has taken on less significance in the past few years with the growth of homegrown talent through the league's academies.
Despite the increased focus on developing players internally at most clubs, there have been some gems to come out of the collegiate ranks in recent years.
The 2020 draft class produced an eight-goal scorer in Daryl Dike and a few other first-team regulars, like Henry Kessler of the New England Revolution and Nashville SC's Alistair Johnston.
Clemson's Philip Mayaka and Wake Forest's Calvin Harris are the front-runners to be the first-ever draft pick of expansion side Austin FC.
