They are strong candidates to be on the eligible list but being sophomores is not so evident they can be drafted. But if not, in the next 2 years they will be strong candidates Edited December 10, 2023 by sonic_fcpf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FC_Hali Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 (edited) Pretty crazy that the SuperDraft is on Tuesday and we still have no real news or coverage. I guess that speaks to how relevant the draft is these days… Still, I’m excited to see how things shake out given TFC has the #1 overall pick and to see which Canadians get selected with early picks. Coverage should really ramp up in the morning. The one mock draft posted had Caldeira going number one overall, so that’s promising. Another name that has been mentioned is Kimani Stewart Baynes, though as a freshman he would need a GA deal to be draft eligible. It will be interesting to see if anyone emerges out of nowhere like Bombito last year. Edited December 17, 2023 by FC_Hali Corazon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stryker911 Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 I'm surprised they haven't announced Generation Adidas signing yet. I assume the teams would already know, but I am not sure why there wouldn't be an announcement. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footyeh Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Kimani Baynes Stewart is one of three Generation Adidas players. Very similar profile to Jayden Nelson, electric pace. Physically not ready for MLS and needs more maturity in his game as did Nelson. I find it very funny that Halifax had him for the spring/summer and didn't give him a single minute.

Also if you see it, I am still looking for the story about Pacius signing for Nashville, i get he is leaving but cant find an actual source saying where. Help an old dude out.

(ordered by minutes played) This Nicolas Fleuriau Chateau immediately jumps out... 14 goals in less than 900 minutes?? According to his profile on the St. John's website, he missed his junior year due to a torn ACL. He didn't get a start as a sophomore and scored his only goal in the first round of the NCAA tournament. As a freshman he only appeared in one game as a sub. As a redshirt junior, he still barely started (played in 17 matches but only started in 2). However, he somehow managed 14 goals which was tied for best in the nation (in the regular season). I don't know if he didn't start because he was coming off the ACL injury, or if there was actually someone ahead of him. One of his two starts came in the Big East tournament game at the end of the year. He was an all-Big East first team selection (another all-Big East first team player, Jacob Murrell, is projected as a top pick in the upcoming MLS Draft). Here's a video of his goals from this season. Wonderful left foot. Interestingly, he has the armband in these clips, which makes me think his minutes were managed due to injury. He must have taken a medical redshirt for his junior year as I saw him listed as a redshirt junior, so if he comes back for a redshirt senior season it will be interesting to see how many goals he can put up, assuming he is healthy to start every match.

Footyeh Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I think everyone has Kimani going #1 just because he's a GA and from Toronto. I'm hearing TFC is going with a Senior player with the 1st pick that they had already flown into town this past week.

Bison44 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Do TFC need a winger? I guess you go with the best guy available. Either way its nice to see some CDNS projected to go in the first round. Hopefully there is a Lareya, Miller or Buchanon in the mix.

Stryker911 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 TFC is going out to pull a Dorsey pick.

The funny thing is that Dorsey turned into an OK player (not Tajon or DSC level obviously) after leaving TFC. Maybe it's a good thing TFC didn't draft either of those guys...
