Any big fans of the MLS able to answer a few questions for me, mainly about the SuperDraft?

1. How much information is available about prospects pre-draft? Is it like the NFL where prospects are discussed months in advance and everyone knows roughly where guys will end up being selected beforehand?

2. Correct me if I’m wrong, but teams each get 3 selections in the draft. And teams can trade their draft selections? If so, is there a place to see what picks each team has?

3. How much impact do drafted players have for their teams? Again, is it like the NFL where guys can be expected to come in and play right away? Is it more of a lottery even in the first round?

4. Not SuperDraft related but I’m aware of the Designated Player rule but unsure of some of the nuances. For example, can a player become undesignated? If a team has three designated players, do they have to sell one if they’d like to bring in another? Or can they say ‘ok this guy isn’t designated any more’ to free up a spot?

Thanks in advance!
