It’s that time of year again – the NFL Draft is just around the corner! While the first round gets all the attention, the second round is when things really start to heat up. So when is the second round of the NFL Draft?
The Second Round Of The NFL Draft
The second round of the NFL Draft is set to begin on Friday, April 28th at 7:00 p.m. ET. The second round will last for seven rounds, with each team having one pick in each round. A total of 32 picks will be made in the second round of the draft.
The NFL Draft is a seven-round process
The NFL Draft is a seven-round process, with each team getting one pick in each of the first six rounds and then two picks in the seventh round. The order of picks in each round is determined by the previous season’s order of finish, with the team that finished last getting the first pick in each round (the so-called “first overall pick”) and the Super Bowl winner getting the last pick in each round (32nd overall).
The first round is on Thursday, April 25
The order for the second and third rounds is identical to the order used in the first round, with the only difference being that teams that had losing records in the previous season pick ahead of teams with winning records.
The second round of the NFL Draft will take place on Friday, April 26 at 7:00 p.m. ET.
