Smith shouldn't be written off yet. He may not be a sexy pick, but the guy has improved his game every season. Often times prospect development seems to stall 2-3 years out from their draft years (Shinkaruk, Hickey), or even regress (Poirier). It's encouraging to see that he is still improving.
Same can be said for Jankowski. They've been baby steps, but the guy seems to move forward each season.
