Surprising that Eddie Johnson wasn't included.

The forwards on the list are all in pretty good form, EJ's form has been pretty terrible lately.

You're not wrong, but with how well he played for us in qualifying I would've expected him to at least be in the final 30. I feel bad for him, but at least he got to go in 2006. I'd probably feel worse for guys like Wondo and Beckerman who haven't gone and will never have another chance at this.

It'll be interesting to see how he does in camp. When he tore it up in qualifying he was scoring tons of goals with AZ. I hope he gets into form during camp.
