The 2007 MLS Expansion Draft was held on November 21, 2007, and is a special draft for the Major League Soccer expansion team San Jose Earthquakes. They made 10 selections from a pool of players from current MLS clubs.
Format
- Only one player may be selected from each team, three of the league's 13 current teams will not have a player selected.
- Teams will be allowed to protect 11 players from their 28-man rosters. Generation adidasplayers are automatically protected, though players who are graduated from the program to the senior roster at the end of the 2007 season are not.
- Each team may only leave one senior international player unprotected. Players are considered SIs here based on their age for the 2008 season, not the 2007 season.
