The only player TFC has ever selected in the re-entry draft was DeRo (for his final stint here).
Most of these players won't get selected in either round.

I might take Figueroa on $100K as CB depth if he'd do it. I haven’t really followed him but I remember him being a stud in the Dallas game here last May.
Dallas are really dismantling their team. Pretty interesting for a team that was near the top in the west for all of 2018
They are going all in on their homegrowns. Be interesting to see how it plays out.
So how about Nick Deleon? I liked him when he first came onto the scene as a midfielder, but I'm not sure about him as a fullback. How do you think Bez or Vanney see him being used?
de leon sucks. never got his head quite into the game and inconsistent as hell. at best he's a depth player
I think we'll use him as a versatile squad option for both the right full back and midfield roles. We badly needed another option to Delgado last season, and DeLeon can offer that, especially since we do play with wider midfielders. He can also be a useful full back option especially if we don't get Auro. There may also be occasions where we'll play on the front foot and field van der Wiel in central defence with DeLeon on the right.
This is a good signing to address the overall lack of depth in our team.
He seems like expensive depth, not what I expected when we cleared the Irwin and Ricketts contracts but if he plays more than those two did it's a more effective use of cap space.

New playoff format and schedule is official. Full details in the link, but the gist of it is 7 playoff teams per conference, with conference winners getting a bye to the 2nd round, all single-elimination with the higher seed hosting.
New schedule has MLS Cup played on November 10th and the entire playoffs happening in 3 weeks between FIFA international breaks. The season is still starting at the beginning of March as usual so expect more mid-week and double game week fixtures throughout the season. Depth becomes even more important.
It's a cup competition. This will make the supporters shield even more of a prize. And will be good for TV.
Can’t say I’d rejoice with too many week day (night) games ......enjoy blissful sunny days , (dream on)
Remember this? It's a funny ol game....

I wonder if de Boer might bring one of Winter or de Klerk with him to Atlanta.
