Thoughts on the New York Red Bulls' Off-Season, Week 3: Is the MLS roster already full?

Add up the reports and rumors of substance, and it is possible to believe RBNY's 2016 roster is filled.

The New York Red Bulls have enjoyed a relatively peaceful off-season to date: no major signings; a few, mostly unsurprising, cuts from the roster. The MLS squad currently comprises 21 players. Of the core group of starters from 2015, only Damien Perrinelle is missing - and the club has said it hopes to bring him back, along with veteran bench options, Kyle Reynish and Shaun Wright-Phillips.

There are seven open spots on the MLS roster, and effectively a full team to staff at the USL level (only five NYRB II players had their contracts renewed for 2016).
