But, as much as we would like forgo patience and accurately predict Jankowski's range the data isn't there to do it. The assumption is that because there hasn't been a top player drafted out of a tier 3 league that Jankowski isn't going to be a top player. But there are have hardly been any players drafted out of those types of leagues.
I have some faith in Weisbrod and the fact they aggressively went out and pursued this kid inspires some confidence. But we really won't know how this pick turns out for a few years yet.

That's fair enough. As you say, there just isn't a lot of data to look at. In addition, every case is unique in some respects...there's only so much a comparables list can tell us about Jankowski himself.
But, since we can't fast forward time 4 years down the road, this type of stuff is all we're left with here.
