With the 50th overall pick in the second round, the New England Patriots selected wide receiver Tyquan Thornton. Thornton comes to New England by way of Baylor, where he put up 10 receiving touchdowns in the 2021 season.

Thornton gives the Patriots a potential speed threat at the wide receiver position, something that could help quarterback Mac Jones. With New England needing an outside threat, Thornton has the potential to be the answer in that department.

With New England selecting their pick, draft pundits from several media entities reacted to the selection. Here are just some of the many that circulated throughout the night.
