But Lawrence is a great complete center. And as I've said, I think you can carve an identity around he and Reschney up the middle (if they both develop well). Neither will be at the top of the scoring race, but that'll be a tough team to play every night.
I think right now I might lean more to Lawrence.

I like the thoughts around building identity. Offence costs money and makes managing the cap much harder. Florida has an advantage of no state tax, but they also have built a team around players that do more than score and in some cases their strength is the defensive game over their offensive game.
I would be ok with Lawrence as well and it will be very interesting to see what happens with teams drafting 2nd through 4th OV.
