I hope he saves his money because he will be driving beer trucks this time next year.

Our WR corps isn't great right now. Dunbar is better than most of our healthy receivers. Not sure if that says more about Dunbar or the WR corps?

you can see him 1000 times bad is bad. But if you are like posters here, 500 bad plays vs 1 good play is good enough to wipe out the 500 bad. . So tell us what you are looking for to determine what will win you over. Id like to know your criteria.

I want to see what he does when he is actually targeted more than three times in three games. I don't expect him to be a great receiver, but if he can be a chain mover, good for two or three first downs a game, then he can help this team. If he gets chances and blows it, then I'll be ready to move on.

hes not going to get many chances, hes not a 1st or 2nd reciever so, i dont know how many times you are going to look. 3 targets for 3 games isnt bad. I cant see the team riskign to see what Street has by tossing him the ball to see what he has. It wont really affect the team one way or the other if hes on it or off. It is hwoever quicker to churn since hes already shown he can sometimes catch the ball.

Now if we are just asking him to catch the ball time to time, ok lets keep him. Lets not , however expect more out of him.

Not even sure he deserves his own thread, but it's time to cut bait. Would rather get experienced slow old guy in here then somebody who has 3 catches and NO upside whatsoever!

How exactly do you evaluate a WR when the camera does not show him?

It was obvious that Weeden was not going to throw over about 8 yards to anybody.

You would need the All-22 to see if Street was getting open.

My buddy was there and said he wasn't. But it doesn't matter, he adds nothing so why keep him?

some people will think nothing will always account for something regardless of what it means.

I would have to assume if he was getting open they would have looked for him at least once in the game

I wouldn't cut him now but he clearly is in danger going forward to 2016. Just doesn't show much of anything. It was concerning when I watched his college highlight tape and felt like I was watching a JAG.

I see everyone is losing their minds right now.

This is like the zombie apocalypse but people were expecting a loss to begin with.

Okay then.

Its because to some our team is loaded with secert superstars like Devin Street and when it turns out to not be the case and we struggle against a good team with most of our key players out they feel betrayed

Irrationality goes both ways

I'd like to see Street targeted at least once. Hard to evaluate a guy who gets literally zero chances. If he drops the ball or tips it for ints, OK we can criticize him. But under the current circumstances all we can do is assume it's his fault they never throw to him. With Weeden not throwing downfield AT ALL, I'm hesitant to blame any WR for what happened out there today. Some say Street gets no separation. I'm not even sure that's true. Get a QB who can throw the ball downfield and I will judge Street then.

Thank you for stating the obvious.....Unreal some people can't see this.

With his lack of separation, he's not likely to get many looks until Romo gets back. I view him as I did Ogletree...just too much of a risk to throw to.
