The second round of the 2021 NFL Draft is set to take place in Cleveland, Ohio on Friday, April 30. Following several trades, what order are the teams picking tonight in Rounds 2 and 3 of the 2021 NFL Draft?
2021 NFL Draft Order: Round 2
All second-round selections in the 2021 NFL Draft.
33. Jacksonville Jaguars
34. New York Jets
35. Atlanta Falcons
36. Miami Dolphins (from Houston Texans)
The fourth pick in Round 2 of the 2021 NFL Draft was traded back in August 2019. The Texans acquired offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil, wide receiver Kenny Stills, a sixth-round pick (202nd overall) in the 2021 NFL Draft, and a fourth-round selection in 2020 (111th) from the Dolphins.
In return, the Texans sent the fourth pick in Round 2 of the 2021 NFL Draft, along with the No. 3 overall pick in 2021, a first-round selection in 2020 (26th), offensive tackle Julie’n Davenport, and defensive back Johnson Bademosi.
The Dolphins traded the 26th selection in 2020 to the Packers for the 30th and 136th picks in the 2020 NFL Draft. With the 30th overall selection, the Dolphins added cornerback Noah Igbinoghene. They also used the 136th pick as part of a package to move up and select guard Solomon Kindley with the 111th overall selection.
Interestingly, that 111th pick was the original selection the Dolphins sent to Houston in the Tunsil trade.
37. Philadelphia Eagles
38. Cincinnati Bengals
39. Carolina Panthers
40. Denver Broncos
41. Detroit Lions
42. New York Giants
43. San Francisco 49ers
44. Dallas Cowboys
45. Jacksonville Jaguars (from Minnesota Vikings)
In August 2020, the Vikings sent a 2021 second-round pick (45th overall) to the Jaguars along with a fifth-round selection in 2022. In return, Minnesota received EDGE Yannick Ngakoue from the Jaguars.
The fifth-round selection in 2022 could have upgraded to either a third or fourth-round pick dependent on Ngakoue’s performance in 2021. For instance, had Ngakoue been selected to the Pro Bowl, the selection would have been in the fourth round. Furthermore, had the Vikings won the Super Bowl, the selection would have been in the third round.
Neither of these occurred, and therefore, the selection in 2022 remains a fifth-round selection. In fact, the Vikings would go on to trade Ngakoue to the Ravens just two months later.
46. New England Patriots
47. Los Angeles Chargers
48. Las Vegas Raiders
49. Arizona Cardinals
50. Miami Dolphins
51. Washington Football Team
52. Chicago Bears
53. Tennessee Titans
54. Indianapolis Colts
55. Pittsburgh Steelers
56. Seattle Seahawks
57. Los Angeles Rams
58. Kansas City Chiefs (from Baltimore Ravens)
The 58th selection in the 2021 Draft was traded to the Chiefs along with OT Orlando Brown Jr. and a sixth-round selection in 2022. In return, the Ravens received the 31st, 94th, and 136th selections in the 2021 NFL Draft and a fifth-round selection in the 2022 NFL Draft.
59. Cleveland Browns
60. New Orleans Saints
61. Buffalo Bills
62. Green Bay Packers

On Day 3 of the 2020 NFL Draft, the 49ers traded a fifth-round pick (156th overall) and a 2021 third-round pick (74th overall) to the Washington Football Team. In return, Washington sent left tackle Trent Williams to the 49ers.
Following a successful 2020 season, Williams became the highest-paid offensive tackle in the NFL during the 2021 offseason. Meanwhile, Washington selected center Keith Ismael from San Diego State with the 156th pick in 2020.
75. Dallas Cowboys
76. New York Giants
The New England Patriots forfeited their third-round pick as punishment for illegally filming the field and sidelines of a 2019 game between the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals.
77. Los Angeles Chargers
78. Minnesota Vikings
79. Las Vegas Raiders (from Arizona Cardinals)
The Cardinals traded the No. 79 overall selection to the Las Vegas Raiders for center Rodney Hudson and the 247th pick.
80. Las Vegas Raiders
81. Miami Dolphins
82. Washington Football Team
83. Chicago Bears
84. Dallas Cowboys (from Indianapolis Colts through Philadelphia Eagles)
The Colts traded the 84th selection in the 2021 NFL Draft and a conditional second-round selection in the 2022 NFL Draft to the Eagles for QB Carson Wentz. The conditional second-round pick could become a first-round selection. That will occur if Wentz plays more than 75 percent of the Colts’ offensive snaps in 2021 or if he plays more than 70 percent and the Colts make the playoffs in 2021.
During the draft, the Eagles traded the 84th selection, along with the 12th overall selection in 2021 to the Cowboys. In return the Eagles received the 10th selection in the 2021 NFL Draft.
85. Tennessee Titans
86. Minnesota Vikings (from Seattle Seahawks through New York Jets)
In July 2020, the Seahawks traded their first (23rd overall) and third-round (86th overall) picks in the 2021 NFL Draft, a 2022 first-round selection, and safety Bradley McDougald to the Jets. In return, the Seahawks received safety Jamal Adams and a 2022 fourth-round selection.
87. Pittsburgh Steelers
88. Los Angeles Rams
89. Cleveland Browns
90. Minnesota Vikings (from Baltimore Ravens)
In October 2020, the Ravens sent their third-round pick (90th overall) in the 2021 NFL Draft and a conditional fifth-round selection in the 2022 NFL Draft to the Vikings for Ngakoue. The fifth-round selection would have become a fourth-round pick if Ngakoue had made the Pro Bowl last season. As he did not, the selection in 2022 remains a fifth-round pick.
91. Cleveland Browns (from New Orleans Saints)
During the 2020 NFL Draft, the Saints traded the No. 88 overall selection and their 2021 third-round pick (91st overall) to the Browns. In exchange, the Browns sent the 74th and 244th selections in the 2020 NFL Draft.
The Saints used the 74th pick in 2020 to select outside linebacker Zack Baun. New Orleans used the 244th pick in a trade package with the Vikings to move up to No. 105 overall. With the 105th selection, the Saints drafted tight end Adam Trautman. The Browns, meanwhile, selected defensive tackle Jordan Elliott with the 88th pick.
92. Green Bay Packers
93. Buffalo Bills
