We kinda/sorta had a good one in Monahan who then got hurt, real bad, many times we shipped out for spare parts.
We drafted Bennett who was "maybe" going to be a 1a/1b but he wasn't a BIG center either and we also traded him for 6 cents on the dollar.
And yet we keep circling back to "WE NEED A HUGE #1 center" over and over and over again, wheras these guys just don't exist and certainly nobody trades you one.
We're not bad enough to suck our way to a top 3 pick, let alone the #1 pick where most of those guys are drafted. Do we just continue to suck and pray/hope we get a #1 O/A pick here soon?
I'm baffled at some of these responses.

Lindros? C'mon, man! We need someone bigger than Chara with the skills of Mario and the meanness of Messier. Conroy should have drafted at least 3 of them by now.
