Drew Helm (born November 9, 1984 in Jupiter, Florida) is an American soccer player, who currently plays forward for Marinhas of the Portuguese Third Division.
Helm began his collegiate soccer career at the University of South Florida. He played two years at USF, appearing in 17 matches, notching 3 goals and 7 assists. In 2005 he transferred to Florida Atlantic University, but after only appearing in 4 matches, scoring 2 goals, he was injured for the remainder of the season.
Regardless of his injury plagued career, Helm was invited to the 2006 adidas MLS Combine where he was very impressive. His performance at the combine earned him the first overall selection in the 2006 MLS Supplemental Draft by Chivas USA. He played sparingly during the 2006 season, making 8 appearances, starting just once. Following the season, he left Chivas to join lower-division Portuguese club Marinhas for the remainder of the 2006/07 season.
