Ahead of each MLS SuperDraft, every year we get to pose as D.C. United and pick college players. It’s fun, and occasionally you even get it exactly right (and other times, you miss badly). Last year, without the option to trade up like United eventually did, we selected Fabian Herbers, who went on to be a solid contributor for the Philadelphia Union as a rookie.
This year, United has three picks in the first two rounds (mercifully, our mock draft does not extend past that point).
