MLS releases protected lists for 2016 Expansion Draft

MLS just released the list of protected players for all teams for the 2016 MLS Expansion Draft. The draft is coming up tomorrow, and as a reminder:

  • Atlanta United FC will choose first, and then they will go back and forth with Minnesota United FC.
  • Unlike previous years, the teams will choose five players each, for a total of five rounds. Usually, the teams pick 10 players each.
  • Once a player from a team has been chosen, no other person from that team can be chosen in a future round (aka that team is off the table).
