Dwayne Haskins had a draft party where he charged people $50 to get in. Always need a side hustle.
that

I thought the report was that he wanted to spend the draft with his family..and apparently friends with $50.
People like money

Is that really weird?
Kind of weird

Especially since he's in line for a huge payday
Yeah

It’s weird
Did he donate the money to a charity?

up here in MA, I went to Vince Wilfork's draft day party several times. It was in my town at a bowling alley/arcade/bar/restaurant and he charged people $100 to enter, but that money went to his foundation.

and it was an awesome time.

Draft day parties with a fee for a charity are no uncommon. If he was just charging admission like we used to do at keg parties in high school and college, that does seem weird.

Dwayne Haskins is about faith, family and football.
Remote throw at #6 I DKN but its in part is Body type

He was Not good under duress for the most part he has that
Byron Leftwich body best I can think of I wouldn't be shocked
if he is a total bust . I wasn't crazy about Jones
but I have not watched him play .
I like the Lawrence pick I think he can get after the QB and
stopping the run is a need with the NFL East !
Their's a video circulating on ESPN  
Canton : 4/25/2019 11:07 pm : link
Where they show his face, when Jones was picked, and he chuckled.
The interview posted with his father

Also came off as weird. I get it, you’re trying to protect the kid, but you need to know that the reporter is going to put a negative spin on your words when you react like that.
Sounds like when you get out of college  
St. Jimmy : 4/25/2019 11:11 pm : link
and still live like you are in college because you haven't grown into your paycheck.

In this context yeah, a little. More than a little IMO.
Seems like a parents thing

I wouldn't hold that against Haskins.
Daniel Jones used his first tweet...  
Tesla : 4/25/2019 11:30 pm : link
after being drafted to hawk some player card he must have a stake in. Thought that was pretty weird myself.
