Night 2 of the 2026 NFL Draft is underway.
So far, thirty-two picks have been made, including Fernando Mendoza to the Las Vegas Raiders and Jadarian Price to the Seattle Seahawks at No. 32. While these selections have been graded, there’s still work to be done for the final evaluations.
A number of picks remain, and several team rosters still need filling.
The second round kicks off with the San Francisco 49ers. If you’re curious, there’s a mock draft for this round available for review. But if you want our thoughts on each Day 2 pick, be sure to check back after the selections start coming in around 7pm ET.
Unlike the first round, where the process is more emphasized, this round is more about the players themselves, their fit within schemes, and so forth.
33. San Francisco 49ers — DeZone Stribling, WR, Ole Miss
This choice is kind of confusing given the board. Stribling isn’t listed in the top 100, but he did make No. 85 on the consensus big board. Even if the 49ers are high on Stribling, did they really need to pick him at 33? There’s chatter about him rising late, especially with Denzel Boston being available. — J.D.
34. Arizona Cardinals — Chase Visontis, G, Texas A&M
I genuinely like this selection by the Cardinals, and it seems even better after their earlier choice of Jeremiah Love. Visontis is primarily a pass-blocking left guard; while he might not dominate on the right side, he’s agile enough to reach the second level and make downfield blocks. The team has a few gaps to fill, but this was a solid pick considering both value and need. A minor downside is his run-blocking skills are somewhat iffy. — J.D.
35. Buffalo Bills — TJ Parker, EDGE, Clemson
The Bills traded down to make this selection, landing an intriguing player. Despite his speed and strength, Parker had a disappointing 2025 season, much like his fellow Clemson teammates. He simply didn’t reach his potential, and that lack of effort shows on tape. Last year, he was getting top-10 hype in early mocks, so he definitely has that capability. It’s really about finding a way to unlock his potential; I think he could excel with the right coaching. — J.D.
