I really don't get why great lengths need to be taken to ensure Jankowski is sheltered from any sort of critique? He's a first round pick. Anything short of a great second half this year would be a disappointment and hopefully based on his play of late he should be rounding into form.
I think people take issue with judging a player purely on stats, while at least not admitting that such a viewpoint is very limited.
