I know we drafted him way too early but he was still projecting as a 2nd round pick. The gap from the 2nd round to the supplemental rounds is huge, the percentage of supplemental picks that play any minutes in MLS is pitiful. It probably shouldn't exist. I'd feel pretty hard done by if I was a 1st round pick who was passed up for a supplemental guy.
