What should you expect on Day 2 of the UFL draft? Like Day 1, it’ll be broken up into six position groups:
-
Defensive front seven (linebackers, defensive ends, defensive tackles)

The following players who are not under contract in another league are up for grabs today:
-
2025 NFL Draft-eligible players
-
2025 NFL training camp players
-
2026 NFL Draft-eligible players
-
Players who signed an LOI and did not finish the 2025 season on a UFL roster
