Thursday is draft day in Major League Soccer and it's a revised SuperDraft show that the league calls the most extensive broadcast in its draft history.
Last year's SuperDraft gathered every team's scouting and management staffs in one place in Chicago and Minnesota United went home with three players that made last season's team: Generation Adidas prospect/goalkeeper Dayne St. Clair from NCAA champion Maryland with the seventh pick, Terrapins teammate Chase Gasper with the 15th pick and Oregon's Hassani Dotson in the secound round with the 31st pick.
United owns the 18th on Thursday and the 88th and 96th picks in Monday's fourth round.

In case you missed it, here's a story both looking ahead to the SuperDraft and at moves United;s restructured management is looking to make in an off-season that hasn't included a big move.
Yet.
United wants to bring back MLS Goalkeeper of the Year Vito Mannone and is willing to make him the league's highest-paid keeper to do so. It is pursuing Paraguayan striker Luis Amarilla at a position where the Loons lost Abu Danladi to Nashville in the expansion draft and aren't expected to still have Angelo Rodriguez on the roster by opening day in March.
