Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Devin Street (15) catches a pass during the second half of play in the home opener at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, on Sunday, September 7, 2014. Dallas Cowboys lost to the San Francisco 49ers 28-17. (Vernon Bryant/The Dallas Morning News)

Devin Street didn’t get many opportunities to work with Tony Romo during the wide receiver’s rookie season. With Romo being limited because of his back and Street buried on the depth chart behind Dez Bryant, Terrance Williams, Cole Beasley and Dwayne Harris, the reps just weren’t there during practice.

But this offseason has been different. With Harris now in New York and Bryant not participating in organized team activities and minicamp because of his contract situation, Street has been getting looks with the first-team offense.

“We didn’t really get any reps together [last year], so it’s definitely been beneficial going forward and in the OTAs,” Street said of his work with Romo. “I’m learning what he likes, what he sees. Me being accountable to him, him having that confidence in me to go out and make plays for him and this offense and this team.”

Street, a fifth-round pick out of Pittsburgh, played in every game last year, totaling two receptions on seven targets for 18 yards.

Devin Street getting chances to grow role; Garrett sees stronger, quicker, faster Cowboys WR
  • Bob Sturm: WR position not as valued as some others; so what makes Dez so valuable to Cowboys?
  • Dez Bryant attends Cowboys' final minicamp practice at AT&T Stadium
  • Cowboys WR coach: Dez Bryant brings an energy, 'when he's in Dallas, I can feel him'

I don't think he can be "dominating" or a "force"

The rest I see him doing

I think he'll make a decent #2 in the NFL. Whether it'll be for us or someone else one day who know knows totally dependent on Williams

Street lacks any special qualities. This kind of article makes me yawn.

I supposed he could become a "dominant" route runner. Whatever that might entail.

What's it going to be then, eh?

Yeah but I like him. He's got his shot to prove people wrong.

I'm a pretty big believer that this QB can make a lot of WRs look better than they really are.

He doesn't impress me anymore than Sam Hurd did, if that puts my feelings in perspective.

The fact that he made little impact during OTA's is troubling.

With Dez out he had the opportunity to shine.

Agreed. If he didn't explode during OTA's he has absolutely no shot to amount to anything during the regular season.

Where were the catches in triple coverage or the one-handed grabs?

he ll do alright and contribute. I mean come on, we are locked for our first 3 this is a great problem to have. If hes a good route runner and gets us moving chains, im all for it. Cant ask him to take it to the house every catch.

Hes good for what he has to do, DALLAS has to put him in the places to succeed.

Explode?

How about doing something that gets a mention in the daily write up he was conspicuously missing from any I can remember.

Not saying he is done as a prospect but you would have liked to hear about something about him making plays.

There were multiple times throughout ota and mini camp that street was praised by the sports media, you must have missed them
