Its probabilistic in nature, and the analysis shows that 5 star guys are more likely to enter the NFL than 3 star guys, but there is a very limited pool of 5 stars and 4 stars and many more 3 and 2 stars, so even if if its less likley (2 and 3 star guys) play in the nfl their sheer numbers guarantee they will.

Bingo. Stars DO matter, they just don't set a player's future in stone. But the higher the stars, the more likely to succeed.
