With rounds three and four of the MLS SuperDraft taking place tomorrow via conference call, I thought today would be a good time to look at some of the best available players still in the draft. These selections are my opinion so please feel free to leave a comment telling me what you agree and disagree with. Enjoy!

PREDATOR ROSTER
Over 70 players have gathered in Fort Lauderdale Florida for the annual MLS adidas Player Combine hoping to impress MLS scouts and coaches and sign a professional contract. Some players invited come from College soccer powerhouses while others hail from smaller programs. Regardless of where you come from the Combine gives every player their chance to show what they have playing three games along with interviews and physical tests. The players have been split into four teams Nitro Charge (Red), Predator (Green), Adizero (Dark Blue), and Brazuca (Light Blue). The following is a breakdown of Predator and which players will need to impress.
