Wondering if I coudl call upn the Anorak's here. .

How successful (Other than Maurice EdU) has TFC been in the draft?
Who would be stand out contributors that have come from the draft system?

Nelson tempering expectations a bit. Makes sense.
Not having been hired by the current regime, I expect he'll be on the hot seat quickly if for some reason they have a poor start.

if Nelsen screws up and Seattle either doesn't win Supporter's Shield or a deep playoff run, expect fat Sigi to be TFC manager for 2015

Joao Plata, Luis Silva, and Brian Edwards as decent.

On related note, look how strong the 2009 draft was

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009_MLS_SuperDraft


(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009_MLS_SuperDraft)Zakuani, Cronin, Gonzalez, Marosevic, Rodney Wallace, Pontius, Besler, Alston, Frei, George John, DeLaGarza, Kocic, Zusi (23rd pick!!!!), & Danny Cruz.


edit - just for fun, I think this team stacks up well for a single draft glass


---------------Zakuani
Zusi-------Pontius-------Cruz
----------Cronin----John
Wallace--Besler--Gonzalez--Alston
--------------Frei

Bench:
Kocic, DeLaGarza, Marosevic, Husidic, Hall, Grella
