Well I'm sure we can agree that Monahan and Bennett are going to be our top two centers for the foreseeable future. If one of Colborne (big center) or Backlund (average size) plays 3rd line C....I could see us needing to fill a bigger 4th line center role. So we need to draft one 4th line C?
Just not something I'd be focusing on regardless of the cliche that you can never have too many big centers, it doesn't make sense. Fill up wing prospects with size and we definitely need more size on D. To say that we need to keep drafting big centermen seems odd given our situation and certainly not "obvious". Unless you don't assume that Monahan and Bennett are 1 and 2.
All that being said just draft the BPA.
