If they're gonna have Kanan smacking the likes of Darth Maul around despite being blind while implying that Ezra has the potential to be even more powerful, I'd say he's gonna be pretty high up there by the end of the series. Maybe Galen Mareck level if the writers are going in the direction I think they are going.

Unlikely.

People are getting overexcited, Zannah was Force crushing Jedi at an age younger than Ezra and with no formal training, I don't think he'll end up that powerful if he even lives to see his potential realised.
That was an act of rage that she probably couldn't regularly replicate, and against unwitting victims. And FP Zannah is likely fairly powerful. Regardless, it's not very reliable to mix canon and legends sources.

Good question. I think he will be an average power Jedi. One of the new things about new canon is that they don't introduce super-powered Force users or unbelievably potent force powers.
Um...those definitely exist, unless if the "new canon" has wiped out the rest of the still-canon movies and movie novelizations. There's a pretty wide range of actually abilities between different Force users of similar ages and experience (.ie Obi Wan and Cin Drallig, Mace Windu and Qui Gon...).
Everyone is exactly the same, except Anakin and Luke.
And Rey, and Mace Windu, and Darth Maul, and...
Yoda is only that powerful, because he's had 800 years to practice.
And his midichlorian count is unusually high, as per TPM.
Palpatine is that good, because he's studied all "aspects, not just the dogmatic narrow point of the Jedi."
That doesn't explain his prowess as a duelist or the strength of his Force lightning, or how he's more powerful than an older and more experienced Dooku, etc.

I wouldn't make much fuss about Kanan 'smacking the likes of Maul', though. Seconds before that, Maul went almost toe-to-toe against a powerful Ahsoka in a straight-up saber duel.

He's more powerful than Kanan already tbh. I hope they decide to do something other than the same old prodigy turning to the darksider go :/
IIRC it was said on DragonCon that the fall to the Dark Side was Anakin's story and that they had to come up with something differently for Ezra.
