I was wondering this today: Why does MLS have a SuperDraft as opposed to a normal, run of the mill draft? Is there something different about it?

Before the SuperDraft began, there were separate college and supplemental drafts. So I think they gave it that name to signify that is was one combined effort now.
We got money for him when the MLS sold him so I do not think we have the rights to him anyways. We used some of the money from his sale to install grass at BMO Field.
I don't know why I was thinking he left when his contract expired. I forgot how much Toronto made off that sale. Nice piece of business.We got money for him when the MLS sold him so I do not think we have the rights to him anyways. We used some of the money from his sale to install grass at BMO Field.
Correct, he is not tied to any MLS team. If someone wants to pay him DP money, they can grab him whenever they want. Otherwise it goes to the allocation order, where DC has first dibs.
Has he even played a match since leaving rangers? I just don't see how he helps as a dp on a MLS team
DC sends Ethan White and the #1 allocation spot to Philly for Jeff Parke and the #6 allocation spot.
I have no idea WTF DC is thinking with this move. All that for Jeff Parke?
Not a terrible move really. If they don't have a need for White, they just saved his $91K and picked up Parke at $216K. A fairly good starting CB for $125K isn't bad, though I suppose it all depends on what player they might miss with the allocation spot.
Philly clears enough cap room to add Edu on a DP contract.
Apparently Philly and Edu has worked something out, but MLS didn't want them paying him $1.2M, so they're nixing the deal. Kinda fucked up considering the league paid the transfer for Dempsey and Bradley.
