3 years agoNew England grabbed Baylor wide receiver Tyquan Thornton with the 50th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. Green Bay reportedly also had its eye on the wideout. However, it was the Patriots making the relatively surprising move to pick up a receiver. Thornton, who had the fastest 40-yard dash time at his position during the combine, likely won't be a week-to-week fantasy option, primarily with DeVante Parker, Jakobi Meyers, Kendrick Bourne, and potentially N'Keal Harry on the depth chart. Yet, his speed makes him capable of making a sporadic splash throughout the 2022-23 campaign, especially if he's featured on special teams or there is an injury somewhere in the Pats' receiving corps.--Dennis Clausen - RotoBaller
