Unresolved 2001 SuperDraft Trades
- 18 February 1999: Chicago Fire traded Zak Ibsen to Los Angeles Galaxy for 2001 second-round pick
- 24 February 1999, Colorado acquired GK Ian Feuer from New England Revolution in exchange for future considerations. It is unclear whether this trade was fulfilled through a 2001 first-round pick, a 2001 second-round pick, or why New England gave up draft picks to unload a player.
- 2 August 1999, Tampa Bay Mutiny traded defender Sam George, midfielder Paul Dougherty, and a conditional draft choice to Chicago Fire in exchange for defender Richie Kotschau and midfielder Manny Lagos. The draft pick may be 2001 pick #20.
