Toronto FC: History of Reds’ first draft picks

Toronto FC’s first draft picks have had a wide range of experiences since their MLS SuperDraft days:

2007: Maurice Edu, first overall

The midfielder from the University of Maryland, a Generation Adidas player at the draft, made 25 appearances and scored four goals in his first season, winning him the league’s rookie of the year honour. The success of that year earned Edu a transfer from Toronto to Rangers FC of the Scottish Premier League. After stints in Engand and Turkey, Edu returned to the MLS in 2014 and now captains the Philadelphia Union.
