When Chicago Bears are picking on Day 2 of 2026 NFL Draft
The Chicago Bears have three picks on Day 2 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Here's when they'll be picking on Friday night.
The 2026 NFL Draft is upon us, and the Chicago Bears are gearing up for the second day of action following a busy and chaotic first night. The Bears landed a steal with the selection of Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman , who was expected to go much higher and fell right into Chicago's lap. While safety was a pressing need heading into the draft -- especially after Kevin Byard and Jaquan Brisker exiting in free agency -- no one expected Thieneman to be there at No.
25. Now, the Bears pair free-agent addition Coby Bryant with a young, versatile and playmaking safety in Thieneman. But Day 2 is also shaping up to be an important day for the Bears.
Chicago has three selections -- two second round picks (including one from the DJ Moore trade with the Buffalo Bills ) and another third rounder. With some big names still on the board -- including defensive tackle Kayden McDonald and edge rushers T. J.
Parker, Zion Young and Gabe Jacas -- there will be opportunities for general manager Ryan Poles to capitalize. With that in mind, here's where the Bears will be picking on Day 2: Bears draft picks on Day 2 Round 2, Pick 57 Round 2, Pick 60 (from Buffalo Bills) Round 3, Pick 89 When will the Bears be making their picks on Day 2?
