How many reps does Childress have in a the base offense in NFL games?
How many reps does Reche Caldwell have in a base offense in NFL games?
Caldwell's performance is the usual for him - well below reasonable expectations.
He's a floater - a turd who somehow evades the final flush.
Bam's performance is fairly typical for a player of his experience. Greg Jennings got a catch at the very end of the Packers game. That after an excellent preseason performance, and exactly what would be reasonably expected of a player with his NFL game experience in the base offense.
Watch Oakland play - if you can stand it. John Madden gushes over Gabriel for a few seconds, and then he stinks up the rest of the reel. He is extremely inconsistent.
Inconsistent or not, Caldwell and Gabriel have NFL experience and have proven that they can catch a ball in a regular season game. Childress has not. Any spewing about him being a better WR than proven commodities is simply conjecture. He has three catches in the regular season. It's all guesswork as to what he COULD be, you can say nothing of what he IS. What he IS, currently, is a 3 career catch WR that is unemployed.
EDIT: For the record: While not to the same degree, this reminds me very much of people crying for Cobbs over Dillon during the preseason. Same outcome. Dillon is employed, Cobbs is not.
