With the next MLS SuperDraft right around the corner next Wednesday, now feels like a good time to look back at Orlando City’s previous draft picks and pick the five best ones. I’m making my picks and rankings based on the value the player provided compared to where they were picked, how well they produced for the Lions, and what sort of transfer fee, if any, was received when they eventually departed the club. Let’s have at it.
No. 5 — Earl Edwards Jr.
We begin our list with the Landlord, who Orlando City picked in the third round of its first ever MLS SuperDraft all the way back in 2015.
