The 2026 Nfl Draft Continues Friday. Here's When Round 2 Starts
Here we go. Again.
The party is set to continue in Pittsburgh on Friday, April 24 with the second and third rounds of the 2026 NFL Draft. It comes less than 24 hours after 32 lives were changed forever, starting with Fernando Mendoza and ending with Jadarian Price.
There was no shortage of wheeling and dealing from the 32 NFL teams, who shook up the opening round and already started making an impact on the other ones to follow. Some of the picks were conventional, like Mendoza heading to the Las Vegas Raiders. Others were surprising, like Carnell Tate being taken at No. 4 by the Tennessee Titans or Ty Simpson landing at No. 13 with the Los Angeles Rams.
Dreams were realized, but the work is only just beginning.
