The Tampa Bay Buccaneers head into Day 2 of the 2026 NFL Draft with two selections after making their first-round selection of edge Rueben Bains Jr. on Thursday night.

Rounds 2 and 3 will take place on Friday, April 24.

Those draft slots put the Buccaneers in range of players who typically develop into starters, particularly at positions like cornerback, linebacker, and interior defensive line. With the edge position addressed in Round 1, Day 2 gives Tampa Bay flexibility to target remaining needs without forcing a selection.

The timing of each pick will depend on how the board unfolds, but based on typical pacing, Pick No. 46 is expected to come early in the second round window, while Pick No. 77 falls toward the back end of the third round. With two selections in this range, Tampa Bay is positioned to add contributors who can compete for snaps early while continuing to build depth across the roster.
