Expansion Draft Notes:

• Five rounds. Atlanta and Minnesota are permitted three minutes to make each selection. here will be NO timeouts during the Expansion Draft. Expansion Clubs that fail to make their selection in time must wait until their next pick to make a selection.
• Maximum Player Loss: Once one player has been claimed from a Club’s non-protected roster, that Club is eliminated from the Expansion Draft and may not lose any further players.
• No trades are permitted during the Expansion Draft.
• MLS Clubs may protect 11 players between their Senior, Supplemental and Reserve Roster. If the Player’s contract expires at the end of 2016, he will still be considered part of the Club’s Senior Roster.
• Generation adidas players who have not been graduated at the end of the 2016 MLS Season and Homegrown players on a Club’s Supplemental/Reserve Roster at the end of the 2016 MLS Season are automatically protected (Clubs do not have to use a protected slot on them)
• Clubs are restricted in the number of international player(s) that they may make available. Clubs may make available a number of international players equal to their total number of international players minus three, provided that if a Club has three or fewer international players it may not make more than one such player available. For purposes of this expansion process, any non-domestic U.S. Player would count as an International.
• If a Player has a no-trade clause in his contract, his MLS Club must protect him and he will count as one of the 11 Players who may be protected.
• Designated Players are NOT automatically protected (i.e., Clubs must choose whether to protect such players and if such player is not protected, he will be available for selection in the Expansion Draft).
