SB Nation’s MLS blogs held their annual mock SuperDraft last weekend, and Waking the Red was present to pick for Toronto FC. Unfortunately, after the Reds won MLS Cup, they have the last selection in every round, so we were pretty much left to pick up the scraps.
In the first two rounds, the Reds have the 23rd and 46th overall picks. It doesn’t look like a successful MLS player has ever been taken at those particular spots, but that’s not to say no team has ever found a gem late in the draft.
Last year, with the 21st, 26th, and 27th picks (the latter two of which TFC ended up trading away), WTR took Kwame Awuah, Chris Nanco, and Wuilito Fernandes.
