Worth a straw

Someone who doesn't go through with his or her plans.

A coward or someone who doesn't take risks.

Awulian: I tried to play Tennis with Andy yesterday, but, he told me he came to look around the court for lost money.

Cahill: He is worth a straw, he is worthless, he slept all day while we were on a camping trip last month.
