I agree and I don't even think it's controversial. Every single draft teams make picks "off the board" with a high risk, high reward project. Feaster and friends could've played it safe but instead tried to swing for the fences. Sometimes you hit a home run, sometimes you strike out and everything in between. The Jankowski pick was not some weird, historical aberration but the same type of pick that other teams make every single draft. Sometimes you get a Gaudreau in the 4th round, sometimes you get a Yakupov 1st overall.
