Nolan Nawrocki: 28th rated WR, Not on top 150 value board, 4th-5th round projection.

Pitt's all time leading pass catcher. Street is a narrowly built, long-levered, smooth-muscles receiver whose best assets are his length and hands. Needs to incorporate more physicality into his game, but has the ability to be an effective zone beater and red-zone target.

-

Frank Coyle, Draft Insiders Digest: 25th rated WR, 156th player overall, 5th-6th round projection.

He is a developed prospect who has the components to be a good red zone receiver where he is a difficult matchup. Athlete was productive at a high level and should be a fine performer in multiple sets. Possible starter with development. Falling prospects off concerns related to his speed and recent injury history. Marginal top 150 pick with the skills to be a fine weapon.

-

Scouts Inc., ESPN: 32nd rated WR, 222nd player overall, 7th round projection.

Street is a natural pass-catcher with a good height-speed combination, though he would do well to bulk up and get stronger. He's not much of a threat after the catch, though, and he's a one-speed route runner who will have a tougher time separating at the NFL level.

-

Dane Brugler, NFLDraftScout: 20th rated WR, Not on top 100 value board, 4th-5th round projection.

Street has an expansive resume and was the go-to target for Pitt the last few seasons, lining up in the slot and outside the numbers. Was effective in the short, intermediate and deep levels. He has an athletic frame with the height/length combination to match up well in the NFL, but needs to consistently play up to his measurables and develop his strength. Street projects as one of the top 5 seniors in this draft class and an early day 3 selection.

I expect some young vets with upside on the street during training camp. Not overly worried about WR unless Dez goes down.

Laughing at these "reports". It just goes to show half these guys don't know what they are looking at on film if they even are looking at film.

Guy is one of the best route runners in College. Great Hands & comes from a program where he will be pro ready & there was no stability at QB during his career. Complete steal here!!!!

Decent pick up. No complaints here. We needed another WR. Looks sneaky fast because of his long legs. Has some hops too.

He highlights look good. To be honest, I don't know much about him. Although I would have preferred the Wisconsin receiver.

I like the pick, nice size, unlike Austin he fights for the ball in the air!

Great value and even tough he needs development, he could really make an impact especially in the Red Zone!

I've seen Devin Street play a ton of games, he's a good football player.

I'm sure the Garrett/ Paul Chryst connection had something to do with this pick.

I don't have a problem taking a highly productive college wr in the 5th round.

Seriously how many of these picks are really going to make the team...?
I don't think any of the LB's do.

This is the tall, deep threat that Linehan covets. This guy is going to make some plays.

Okay, I'm pretending we traded our 5th to move up in the 4th for Street and we used the 7th on Hitchens. That helps. A little bit.

It actually does...because that's exactly what happened as far as I can recall...
