The 2006 MLS Expansion Draft, held on November 17, 2006 was a special draft for MLS expansion team Toronto FC. Toronto FC selected 10 players from a pool of players from current MLS clubs.

Format

[edit]
  • Only one player could be selected from each team. Two of the league's 12 teams did not have a player selected.
  • Teams were allowed to protect 11 players from their 28-man rosters. Generation adidas players were automatically protected, though players who had graduated from the program to the senior roster at the end of the 2006 season were not.
  • Each team could only leave one senior international player unprotected.
