Dwayne Haskins, Jr. - Garden Stater?


Hardcore Troubador

Recommended Posts

Read these two articles on NJ.com about Dwayne Haskins and his possible “return” back to NJ.  Gotta admit I had no clue he came from NJ or had any connection to the state.  

The dad sounds like a real character but no denying the kid’s work ethic and talent.

Strange that he was totally unknown to the BNU schools - anyone with more insight on what (didn’t) happen there?

Is he NFL ready? Sometimes when you play for a great team with talent all around you, it’s easy to look good. He can just sit back and throw to 5 star receivers while being protected by his All American line. 

Almost all The best QBs in the game right now played for non college powers.

Aaron Rodgers 

Drew Brees

Big Ben

Matt Ryan 

Pat Mahomes

Russell Wilson 

Andrew Luck 

Nick Foles 

Carson Wentz

Cam and Brady are exceptions

Believe he's from Piscataway. Originally started at PHS, then transferred to JC St Anthony's. Neither would let him play QB (LOL) so he left for Bullis MD. The rest is history. 

He went from Piscataway to St. Anthony’s in Jersey City?!?!  If true that’s just insane from a football perspective.

Heard he first went to Bergen and they wanted him to play WR so he left.

Hes built like a NFL qb no doubt about it. Someone will take him in the 1st round. I like him better than Murray.

Stanford was becoming a power when Luck was there.  Wisconsin was a power when Russell Wilson was there.

Cal was strong when Aaron Rodgers was there as well. One of the best offensive lines in college football at the time.

 

Carson Wentz played with better talent at NDSU than his opponents had.
