2026 NFL Mock Draft: Day 2 Picks & Predictions

Let’s dive into predictions for the next two rounds of the 2026 NFL Draft.

2026 NFL Mock Draft: Round 2

33. San Francisco 49ers: Emmanuel Pregnon (G – Oregon)

The 49ers traded out of the first round, and here at No. 33, they got a top guard on the board to help their offensive line.

34. Arizona Cardinals: C.J. Allen (LB – Georgia)

The Cardinals use their No. 34 overall pick and get a true leader at the linebacker position in Allen, who will be the quarterback of the defense.

35. Buffalo Bills: Kayden McDonald (DI – Ohio State)

The Bills were one of the worst run defenses in the NFL, and McDonald helps solve that immediately.

36. Las Vegas Raiders: Chris Bell (WR – Louisville)

The Raiders need weapons for Fernando Mendoza, and if not for a torn ACL in November, Bell would be a first-round pick with his A.J. Brown-like frame.

37. New York Giants: Emmanuel McNeil-Warren (S – Toledo)

McNeil-Warren had a chance to go in the first round, but now the Giants, who passed on Caleb Downs, get a massive safety to patrol the back end of their defense and come up and make hits when asked.

38. Houston Texans: Christen Miller (DI – Georgia)

The Texans need more help on their defensive interior, and they get a player in Miller who needs to bulk up a bit more, but will be productive under DeMeco Ryan’s tutelage.

39. Cleveland Browns: Chase Bisontis (G – Texas A&M)

The Browns signed a bunch of offensive linemen this offseason, but Bisontis will find a role eventually as a solid guard.

40. Kansas City Chiefs: Denzel Boston (WR – Washington)

Boston has fallen a bit, but the Chiefs get a big-bodied receiver to help this Chiefs offense with Patrick Mahomes coming off a torn ACL.

41. Cincinnati Bengals: Jacob Rodriguez (LB – Texas Tech)

The Bengals lost Logan Wilson to retirement, and now, they get an uber-productive linebacker.

42. New Orleans Saints: Zion Young (ED – Missouri)

Young was a possible first-round pick, but instead the Saints got him, a long, strong edge rusher, at No. 42.

43. Miami Dolphins: Jermod McCoy (CB – Tennessee)

The injury concerns have made McCoy drop, but the Dolphins are taking a chance on his talent to pair him with Chris Johnson.

44. New York Jets: Colton Hood (CB – Tennessee)

Hood is a bully of a cornerback, and he’ll bring an attitude that Aaron Glenn will like.

45. Baltimore Ravens: Germie Bernard (WR – Alabama)

The Ravens need a receiver, and Bernard is just a solid, all-around receiver who will be consistent for Lamar Jackson.

46. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Jake Golday (LB – Cincinnati)

The Buccaneers need a linebacker with Lavonte David retiring, and Golday is an explosive prospect.

47. Indianapolis Colts: Treydan Stukes (CB – Arizona)

There were rumblings of Stukes as a first-round pick, but he fell to No. 47 and the Colts’ first pick. He’s a bit older and has an injury history, but the Colts need a player of this caliber when healthy.

48. Atlanta Falcons: Avieon Terrell (CB – Clemson)

The Falcons add more defensive back talent, and even better, it’s A.J. Terrell‘s younger brother.

49. Minnesota Vikings: A.J. Haulcy (S – LSU)

The Vikings were rumored to be in on Thieneman, but instead they got a ball hawk in Haulcy.

50. Detroit Lions: Gabe Jacas (ED – Illinois)

The Lions need more help opposite Aidan Hutchinson, and here they get a team captain who wants to be physical.

51. Carolina Panthers: Chris Brazzell II (WR – Tennessee)

The Panthers get a receiver with speed to replace Xavier Legette on the outside.

52. Green Bay Packers: Gennings Dunker (T – Iowa)

Dunker will play guard in the NFL and likely take over for Anthony Belton.

53. Pittsburgh Steelers: T.J. Parker (ED – Clemson)

This isn’t exactly a need, but more pass rushers is never a bad thing to have. The fall for Parker ends.

54. Philadelphia Eagles: Cashius Howell (ED – Texas A&M)

Howell’s short arms cost him a bit in terms of draft slot, but the Eagles draft a player to replenish their pass-rushing unit.

55. Los Angeles Chargers: Lee Hunter (DI – Texas Tech)

Hunter will come in and help the Chargers in the running game as a 6’3 1/2″, 318-pound nose tackle.

56. Jacksonville Jaguars: R Mason Thomas (ED – Oklahoma)

A bit undersized, the Jaguars get an explosive pass rusher to help out Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker.

57. Chicago Bears: Brandon Cisse (CB – South Carolina)

The Bears have Jaylon Johnson and Tyrique Stevenson, but neither played a full season last year. Now, they get a toolsy, athletic player who can develop behind them.

58. San Francisco 49ers: D’Angelo Ponds (CB – Indiana)

Ponds is a Mike Sainristil-like defensive back who will play tough and help bring some edge to the 49ers’ defense.

59. Houston Texans: Connor Lew (C – Auburn)

Jake Andrews has struggled, and now he has competition as Lew recovers from a torn ACL.

60. Chicago Bears: Joshua Josephs (ED – Tennessee)

He needs some more pass-rushing moves, but Josephs’s wingspan helps him win when rushing the passer. The Bears need more ways to get after the quarterback.

61. Los Angeles Rams: Josiah Trotter (LB – Missouri)

While Trotter isn’t the best in coverage, he’s excellent against the run and explosive in short areas.

62. Denver Broncos: Eli Stowers (TE – Vanderbilt)

The Broncos may be saying goodbye to Evan Engram soon, and here, they get an absolutely athletic freak in Stowers.

63. New England Patriots: Kyle Louis (LB – Pittsburgh)

More of a linebacker/safety hybrid, Louis was a productive player at Pitt last season. The Patriots need to add more talent on defense, and Louis’s production is hard to ignore.

64. Seattle Seahawks: Keith Abney II (CB – Arizona State)

A high football IQ cornerback who can play outside or inside, the Seahawks add a player with a bit of versatility to their secondary.
