Our Favorite Second Grade Field Trips (Virtual and In-Person, Too!)

Don’t make fuss, just get on the bus!

With their growing independence, ability to think logically, and longer attention span, second graders are a real joy to teach. Those characteristics also make for some great field trips. So if you’re thinking about learning experiences for your second graders, you’ll want to check out our list of best second grade field trips.

Not all of these trips will be possible everywhere, but keep in mind any local treasures that are unique to your area. And when you can’t manage a trip—for whatever reason—try our virtual second grade field trips below.

In-Person Second Grade Field Trips

1. a nature center.

A nature center is the perfect place for kids to learn about local plant and wildlife, as well as some beginning geology (land and water) concepts. Activities vary by location but might include a nature hike or live animal presentation.

2. The Children’s Theater

Second graders are a great age for a live theater experience. Children’s theaters generally have offerings based on age-appropriateness. Many plays are based on classic children’s literature, so you can read the book aloud first and then discuss the similarities/differences after!

3. The Hospital

Community helpers are an important part of the second grade curriculum. If they’ve already been to the fire and police station, a tour of a hospital (when it’s safe to do so) might be an option for more mature learners who want an up-close look at the work of doctors.

Going to the zoo provides students with the chance to observe animal behaviors and learn about wildlife conservation. Most of them,  like the San Diego Zoo , have educational programs, including keeper talks and up-close animal encounters.

5. A Factory

Second graders are curious about how things work, so a trip to a factory is likely to be of high interest to them. Cars, chocolates, textiles … the possibilities are endless!

6. An IMAX Theater

This isn’t any old movie theater, and you won’t be taking them to see Pixar’s latest release. But the IMAX experience is something else, and—given educational content like a nature documentary—something second graders should experience.

7. The Children’s Museum

Steer your second graders away from any areas that might seem too “babyish” for them. Instead, point them to cultural and historical exhibits, as well as any available Makerspace activities.

8. The Aquarium

If you’re not lucky enough to have a zoo close by, an aquarium is another good choice. Students will get a window into life under the sea, and lots of aquariums have touch pools for the ultimate in hands-on learning.

9. A Planetarium

Kids love to look at the moon and stars. A visit to a planetarium is the perfect introduction to the solar system. Second graders can take in a show and try to identify constellations.

10. A Fish Hatchery

A trip to the fish hatchery is a great way to learn about the life cycle of a fish, fish anatomy, and water quality. Plus, the kids will enjoy the underwater viewing windows and the opportunity to feed the young fish that are features of most hatcheries.

Virtual Second Grade Field Trips

1. an egg farm.

We love these  virtual egg farm field trips  from the American Egg Board. Make sure you catch the elementary-friendly versions of Hertzfeld Poultry and Creighton Brothers Farms.

Most zoos have live webcams in some of their most popular exhibits, such as the  Panda Cam at Zoo Atlanta . However, some zoos offer a more in-depth look. You’ll definitely want to check out the  San Diego Zoo .

3. The Aquarium

[embedyt]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mY8__n13tKM[/embedyt]

It’s a similar story with aquariums. You have your pick of live webcams, but our favorites are the  Georgia Aquarium’s Ocean Voyager webcam  (wait for the whale shark!) and the  “jellycam” at Monterey Bay Aquarium  (so soothing). And definitely check out  The Maritime Aquarium  where you can register for their virtual programs (try Shark Safari!).

4. Boston Children’s Museum

“Walk” through all three floors of the Boston Children’s Museum on this  virtual tour . Be sure to direct your students to the Japanese House.

5. A Planetarium

Through  Stellarium Web , kids can explore over 60,000 stars, locate planets, and watch sunrises and solar eclipses. If you enter your location, you can see all the constellations that are visible in the night sky in your corner of the world.

Best Back to School Ideas 🍏

2nd Grade Classroom Tour!

Share this post:.

School has officially started! Last week was our first official week with students. I’m so excited to be back in second grade! I love the beginning of a new school year. Don’t you? 😉 Although my room is not “officially” done, I thought I’d give you a quick classroom tour of my new second grade digs!

Then, I added a bird with the student’s name on the cork strip below. This is where we’ll display all the projects we’re ready to show off to the school!

You can check out the letters I used here and the birds here .

Ok… That’s the outside, let’s see the inside!

Here’s the front of my classroom…

Yeah, I don’t know why half my board is a whiteboard and the other half is chalk. Strange… But, I knew I wanted my classroom to bright and welcoming.

Those neon number cards are from Amy Lemons! You can check those out here .

I made a new alphabet for above my chalkboard to match the teal and lime green theme. I wanted everything to be clean and modern looking.

You can check out this alphabet here .

Below that, I put up a 1-60 number line.

A number line in second grade is a must! Skip counting, adding, subtracting, all strategies that work better with a visual. This number line matches the simple/modern teal and green theme of the letter cards and helps with odd and even numbers as well. You can grab this number line here !

Flanking the left side of my board, I have our “objectives board”. I kept it super easy to update daily by using white paper tucked into plastic page protectors and stapling them right onto the bulletin board.

These fun accents are super easy to do! Check out this tutorial I found on Pinterest . 🙂

The other side of my chalkboard houses my calendar. Although the calendar days of  past are long gone from our second grade curriculum, I make point to reference our calendar everyday.

Of course, I had to accent the top with some more pom poms.

Behind my currently very messy desk, I have my word wall board.

As the year goes on, we’ll fill this board up with LOTS of new sight words, vocabulary words, and NEED to know words.

Further down the same wall, we have our “Tweet Success” Reading Counts Board.

Some schools do AR, we use the Reading Counts program. I wanted my kiddos to be super excited to track their points, so I printed out these large numbers and hung them using twine and clothes pins.

As students earn their points, they can sign their name on the corresponding points. Simple and easy way to keep kiddos excited about their reading! You can grab the numbers here for FREE!

One of my favorite bulletin boards this year is my #SecondGrade board.

Kids LOVE seeing pictures of themselves and I thought creating our own classroom Insta-board would help create a sense of ownership in our classroom.

Right below that, I have a nice little storage system to house all my math manipulative. You can grab the simple and editable labels I used for FREE here !

I’ve found copy box tops make excellent shelf organizers for small supplies like pencils and markers. I even put them into my large cabinet to help house markers, crayons, and glue. They easily slide out so I can get to the back of the shelf without having to reach too far.

They may not be pretty but they are so helpful!

The left side of my classroom is still a work in progress, but I had to put up our classroom noise reference posters (best part? These are a total FREEBIE from the ever talented Reagan Tunstall !)

Check…

Plastic 3 drawer system to house our daily lesson supplies, complete with teacher junk already littering the top?

Check and check!

Tucked away in the back of our classroom is our Clip Chart and Classroom Expectations.

(You can check out these signs here )

At mid year last year, I HAD to give up my clip chart. My thirds were just having a hard time with this system. You can read more about that journey here . Don’t get me wrong, my thirds LOVED Class Dojo, I just struggled with consistency using that program. I felt like I was always having to change and adjust rules and rewards.

This year I made the choice to bring back the clip chart. I had used it for 6 years in 2nd grade with a high success rate. I like consistency when it comes to classroom management and this positive clip system was very cut and dry, no gray area. You can read more about this classroom management system here .

And that’s a peek at my new second-grade classroom!

Now excuse me while I go to B.E.D. the second week of school is just as exhausting as the first!

Tour de France

Tour de france stage 2: a day for the puncheurs, echoes of the ardennes classics will please the climbers..

Stage 2 — Sunday, June 30 Cesenatico to Bologna Distance: 200.8 km (125 miles) Profile: Undulating stage

Stage 2: Echoes of the Ardennes classics will please the climbers

The Tour’s salute to 1998 winner Marco Pantani continues on stage 2 with a stage start in his hometown of Cesenatico. It covers 200.8km to Bologne and, like stage 1, has a number of uphills which should shake things up. All are short and steep, however, making it a different day in the saddle than 24 hours earlier.

Reminiscent of the Ardennes classics, albeit with fewer climbs, the stage is flat for the first 74km. The tone then shifts on the first of the day’s six climbs, the Côte de Monticino (2km at 7.5 percent). From there the riders descend for 10km before taking on the steepest and shortest ascent of the day, the Côte de Gallisterna.

While it is just 1.2km in length, it averages 12.8 percent and will favor explosive riders.

After descending into Imola a 42km interlude follows before the next two climbs, the Côte de Botteghino di Zocca and the Côte de Montecalvo. The second of these is both longer and steeper, with 2.7km at 7.7 percent proving a real platform for those who are either chasing yellow or a stage win.

From there 48km remains, with two laps of the finishing circuit subjecting the riders to the plus-10 percent slopes of the Côte de San Luca. The finish line isn’t far from there, making for a dramatic end to the stage and, very possibly, a new race leader.

The view of Tour de France race director Christian Prudhomme: “The passage across the Emilia-Romagna region is straightforward enough to begin with as it takes the peloton to Imola and its famous motor racing circuit. The final part of the stage, featuring the climb to the Sanctuary of San Luca (1.9km at 10.6 percent), the traditional finale of the Giro dell’Emilia, which will be tackled twice in the final 40km, offers fertile terrain for the peloton’s puncheurs.”

NFL Draft Rounds 2 and 3 grades: Eagles earn A for DeJean, Commanders get mixed reviews

Welcome to  The Athletic ’s pick-by-pick grades for Rounds 2 and 3 of the  2024 NFL Draft . If you missed them, check out our grades for all 32 picks made during Thursday night’s Round 1.

Grading in the moment is a difficult (some might even say unfair) project, and it’s true that we’ll need several years to fully get an idea of each pick’s level of success. So, our instant reactions will try to take everything into account  — pick value, trade costs, what the board looked like at the time of the selection and so on.

Here’s how everyone did on Day 2 of the NFL Draft:

(Note: Scott Dochterman provided grades for odd-numbered picks, Nick Baumgardner for even-numbered picks.)

NFL Draft 2024 tracker:   Live blog, pick-by-pick grades and analysis Big board best available:   Who’s left from Dane Brugler’s Top 300? Full draft order:   Team picks for all 257 selections “The Athletic Football Show”:   Watch live reaction to the draft

33. Buffalo Bills (from CAR): Keon Coleman, WR, Florida State

Big, physical and capable of making highlight-reel catches, Coleman ran a 4.61-second 40-yard dash at the combine — a time that may have knocked him down a few spots. But he’s a quality pickup to open the second round. In one season at Florida State, Coleman (6-3, 213) caught 50 passes for 658 yards (13.2 yards per catch) and 11 touchdowns with only two drops.

Grade: B-plus

34. Los Angeles Chargers (from NE): Ladd McConkey, WR, Georgia

Arguably the most QB-friendly receiver in the draft, McConkey is all speed and precision with reliable hands and wiggle after the catch. He’s versatile enough to play multiple spots, he’ll block — McConkey easily could have a first-round pick. He’ll be Justin Herbert ’s new best friend.

35. Atlanta Falcons (from ARI): Ruke Orhorhoro, DT, Clemson

In their 3-4 defense, the Falcons always can use size up front. Orhorhoro offers that — he’s 6-foot-4 and 294 pounds with 34-inch arms. He posted 24 tackles for loss, 12 sacks and nine passes defensed combined from 2021-23. He could be a good player long-term, but to make this selection this early in the second round — and trade away a third-round pick in the process — is a bit rich.

Grade: D-plus

36. Washington Commanders : Johnny Newton, DT, Illinois

A versatile and powerful interior pocket pusher who can play nose or three-tech, Newton showed dominant stretches of disruption at Illinois and was a first-rounder on a few boards. His impact wasn’t as consistent as you’d like, and his length is less than ideal — meaning he’ll have to flash dominant power far more often. It’s easy to like Newton, but would an offensive tackle have helped more?

37. New England Patriots (from LAC): Ja’Lynn Polk, WR, Washington

New England needed a threat at receiver for new quarterback Drake Maye, and it picked one up here. Tough and competitive but lacking top-end speed, Polk is not afraid to block or make difficult catches over the middle. This was probably a bit high for him, however.

Grade: C-plus

38. Tennessee Titans : T’Vondre Sweat, DT, Texas

This is a tough one. Sweat was charged with a DWI earlier this spring, but The Athletic ’s Dane Brugler reported that Sweat was open about his off-field behavior during the draft process. Football-wise, Sweat is a unique mountain of a man — 360-plus pounds with the feet and agility to play multiple spots. Can you trust him off the field? Can he keep his weight down? High-risk, high-reward pick here.

39. Los Angeles Rams (from NYG via CAR): Braden Fiske, DT, Florida State

Wow, did the Rams give up a ton (Nos. 52 and 155 plus a second-round pick next year) to move up 13 spots. Nothing against Fiske, who’s worth a second-round selection, but that’s way, way too much. Fiske (6-3, 292) won’t wow anyone with his physical abilities at this level, but his work ethic and toughness will garner immediate respect.

40. Philadelphia Eagles (from CHI via WAS): Cooper DeJean, CB, Iowa

Is he a corner? A safety? A nickel? It doesn’t matter. DeJean will find his way onto the field after a productive career at Iowa, in which he played both corner and nickel. He had a combined seven interceptions (three picks sixes) and 20 passes defended the past two seasons. DeJean (6-0, 203) is also an elite punt returner. The Eagles gave up a lot (Nos. 50, 53 and 161 for 40, 78 and 152), but it was well worth it.

41. New Orleans Saints (from NYJ via GB): Kool-Aid McKinstry, CB, Alabama

New Orleans picked up a first-round talent, at its biggest position of need, in the second round. A fluid, versatile defensive back, McKinstry started 33 games at Alabama over three seasons. He intercepted just two career passes but defended 25 others and netted five tackles for loss. McKinstry (5-11, 199) ran a 4.47 40 at his pro day, and his 10-yard split of 1.44 seconds is considered elite.

42. Houston Texans (from MIN): Kamari Lassiter, CB, Georgia

A physical, fluid athlete who got on the field early and often in a talented Georgia secondary, Lassiter relies on agility and good eye discipline as a well-rounded corner with plenty of upside. The problem here is Lassiter’s lack of speed (4.64 40 at his pro day), so he might be a nickel-only defender in the NFL .

43. Arizona Cardinals (from ATL): Max Melton, CB, Rutgers

Arizona needed a fast, tough defensive back to change its secondary, and it got one of the better ones left on the board. Flexible and productive, Melton became the symbol of the new/old Rutgers program under head coach Greg Schiano. A four-year starter, he had nine pass breakups and three interceptions last year.

44. Las Vegas Raiders : Jackson Powers-Johnson, G/C, Oregon

The 2023 Rimington winner as college football’s best center, Powers-Johnson is a terrific and powerful athlete who showed dominant flashes at the point of attack and on the second level as a run blocker. He dominated the Senior Bowl (as a junior), but there are some concerns here — Powers-Johnson has an injury history, including concussions, and doesn’t have a very long reach. But he is a tough football player who will advance the culture.

45. Green Bay Packers (from DEN via NO): Edgerrin Cooper, LB, Texas A&M

The Packers’ biggest need was in the secondary, and trading down four spots cost them a shot at three different cornerbacks. That stings a bit — but the Packers also had to fill a hole at linebacker, and they got the most physically gifted one in this draft. With 34-inch arms, an 80-inch wingspan and 4.51 40 speed, Cooper (6-2, 230) could shift to a full-service linebacker position.

46. Carolina Panthers (from IND): Jonathon Brooks, RB, Texas

Brooks, who was RB1 on many boards this year, missed three games last season with an ACL injury but showed terrific short-area quicks during an 1,100-yard 2023. A good receiver with reliable hands, Brooks has a lot of upside. Same time, the Panthers — a team that still can’t protect Bryce Young — just traded up in the second round for a running back.

Grade: B-minus

47. New York Giants (from SEA): Tyler Nubin, S, Minnesota

Maybe the most underrated player in the draft, Nubin was both a solid coverage safety and a tremendous tackler at Minnesota. He will step in immediately for Xavier McKinney and thrive. Nubin finished his career with a school-record 13 interceptions and 24 passes defended, as well as 207 tackles. He’s a Day 1 starter.

48. Jacksonville Jaguars : Maason Smith, DT, LSU

One of the biggest dudes in this class, Smith exploded on the scene as a freshman at LSU. Then he tore his ACL in the opener of his sophomore year and hasn’t quite been the same since. The injury history combined with Smith’s body type (6-5, 306) is concerning. If he pans out, it’ll certainly fill a need.

49. Cincinnati Bengals : Kris Jenkins, DT, Michigan

Cincinnati needed a replacement for D.J. Reader , and it couldn’t have found a better fill-in than Jenkins. At Michigan, Jenkins (6-2, 299) tied up blockers for the national champions — he finished with 36 tackles, including four for loss, and two sacks last fall. And perhaps playing a different role will help him even more statistically.

50. Washington Commanders (from NO via PHI): Mike Sainristil, CB, Michigan

Sainristil’s toughness and IQ are off-the-charts good, and his leadership is special. A major culture changer at Michigan, Sainristil is small, but he’s a good athlete and very, very hard to fool. He’ll be a contributor on Day 1. But the Commanders  still have to draft offensive line help at some point — it’s getting hard to stress this more.

51. Pittsburgh Steelers : Zach Frazier, C, West Virginia

If there’s anyone who was built to play for the Pittsburgh Steelers, it’s Frazier. This is a perfect match — and it could be one for a long time. Among the most consistent offensive linemen in the draft, Frazier started 46 games (38 at center) for the Mountaineers. He was a four-time high school heavyweight wrestling champion and a second-team All-American center last fall.

52. Indianapolis Colts (from LAR via CAR): Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas

Now we’re talking. Rather than go receiver in the first round, GM Chris Ballard opted for his top edge (Laiatu Latu). And Mitchell — a big, long, fast and explosive X receiver who can line up all over the field — could have been in Round 1 himself. He has to be more consistent and continue maturing, but goodness, there is upside here. This is potentially a great fit for Anthony Richardson .

53. Washington Commanders (from PHI): Ben Sinnott, TE, Kansas State

This has nothing to do with Sinnott, who is a salt-of-the-earth success story and went from walk-on to All-Big 12 — he’s a great blocking tight end. But the Commanders had three second-rounders and a huge need at tackle, and ignored that need all three times. There were quality tackles there. Washington … what are you doing?

Grade: D-minus

54. Cleveland Browns : Mike Hall Jr., DT, Ohio State

The fastest defensive tackle in the class, Hall ran a 4.75 (at 290 pounds) during Ohio State’s pro day and has one of the best first-step bursts out there. As an interior pass rusher, Hall has major upside. As a run defender, Hall has a long way to go and needs to be more consistent and gap sound. This is solid value, as Hall is good enough to contribute, but Cleveland doesn’t have many picks and could’ve used more O-line help.

55. Miami Dolphins : Patrick Paul, OT, Houston

This is a solid pick, with tons of upside. At Houston, Paul started 44 games at left tackle, and he has the size (6-7, 331) and massive arms (36 1/4 inches, 86-inch wingspan) to develop into that position in the NFL. Paul could become Terron Armstead ’s replacement, perhaps as soon as this fall.

56. Dallas Cowboys : Marshawn Kneeland, Edge, Western Michigan

In what was a pretty thin year for edges, Kneeland flashed as much as, or more than, anyone at that position. His production was inconsistent and does not match his ability — but when he was on, he was a dominant force in the MAC. There was some buzz Kneeland might creep into the first round. He’s one of the better run defender-pass rusher combinations in the class. Great value for the Cowboys, at a position  of need.

57. Tampa Bay Buccaneers : Chris Braswell, Edge, Alabama

It seems like every year Tampa Bay takes an early swing for an edge rusher, but it always makes sense to do so. Braswell finished with eight sacks, 10.5 tackles for loss and a team-best three forced fumbles last season, despite making only two starts. Although undersized, Braswell (6-3, 251) shows plenty of upside and is a proficient kick blocker. He could wind up being a player like Leonard Floyd .

58. Green Bay Packers: Javon Bullard, S, Georgia

The Packers made a splash in free agency, signing Xavier McKinney, but still had a need for safety depth. This was the perfect range to find one, and Bullard — a tough, physical and highly intelligent player — will have time and room to grow. He also could get on the field as a nickel or safety right away.

Grade: A-minus

59. Houston Texans: Blake Fisher, OT, Notre Dame

The Texans needed some help at right tackle opposite Laremy Tunsil , and they found a player who fills that need. With 34 3/8-inch arms, Fisher (6-5, 310) has the measurables to play tackle in the NFL. He started 26 games at right tackle for Notre Dame and has a shot to start at that position as a rookie.

60. Buffalo Bills: Cole Bishop, S, Utah

A big, speedy safety who made nearly 200 career tackles (including 21.5 for loss), Bishop played a lot in the box as a nickel defender, as well as deep at safety. A very instinctive player who’s sometimes too aggressive, Bishop is explosive and versatile. He could be a starter sooner rather than later. Washington State’s Jaden Hicks might have been the better option, but this is a solid choice at an area of need.

Utah safety Cole Bishop was everywhere on the Florida tape. 11 tkls, 1.0 sack and this forced fumble. Starting on the near hash, he covers a ton of ground to blow up the scrambling QB. Love his competitive urgency! pic.twitter.com/bEpZwfZkHk — Dane Brugler (@dpbrugler) September 1, 2023

61. Detroit Lions : Ennis Rakestraw Jr., CB, Missouri

Cornerback was Detroit’s primary weakness entering the draft. The Lions have addressed that issue with a pair of quality cornerbacks, Terrion Arnold and now Rakestraw, in the first two rounds. The aggressive Rakestraw (5-11, 183) missed four games last year with a groin injury, but he had 24 career passes defended over 36 games at Missouri.

62. Baltimore Ravens : Roger Rosengarten, OT, Washington

An outstanding athlete (who played opposite Troy Fautanu in college), Rosengarten’s more of a traits-based project right now than a finished product — but his speed and footwork make him an intriguing, interchangeable tackle. He needs to get stronger and become more consistent with his technique, but he’s a versatile piece in an area where Baltimore had to get better.

63. Kansas City Chiefs (from SF): Kingsley Suamataia, OT, BYU

The Chiefs traded up one spot to secure an athletic marvel at tackle. Raw but oozing with potential, Suamataia (6-4, 326) started 11 games at left tackle and 12 at right tackle for BYU. It might take some time, but with 34 1/4-inch arms and a 5.04-second 40, Suamataia has the physical skills to secure a long-term starting tackle spot by midseason — or in 2025.

64. San Francisco 49ers (from KC): Renardo Green, CB, Florida State

A five-year player who appeared in more than 50 college games, Green is a competitive press corner with great length and physicality, both in coverage and against the run. He’s small, however, and might have issues with stronger receivers. The offensive tackle board sort of wiped out before this pick, so cornerback made sense — but there might have been better CB options.

65. New York Jets (from CAR): Malachi Corley, WR, Western Kentucky

The Jets moved up seven spots to grab one of the most productive receivers in college football — Corley (5-10, 207) totaled 253 catches for 2,968 yards and 29 scores over his last three seasons. Known as “the YAC king,” Corley averaged 9.2 yards after the catch in his last two years combined. He’s physical, tough and made to play the slot in the NFL. Expect him to make some difficult catches for Aaron Rodgers .

66. Arizona Cardinals: Trey Benson, RB, Florida State

The production doesn’t match the explosion or testing from Benson, who is a terrific open field runner, both out of the backfield and as a receiver at 216 pounds. Benson never broke 1,000 rushing yards in a season, but he also has just 300 college carries on his body. You could’ve made a case for a linebacker here, but Benson underneath and Marvin Harrison Jr. over the top? Kyler Murray will dig that.

67. Washington Commanders: Brandon Coleman, OT, TCU

It took far too long, but the Commanders finally landed an offensive tackle. A former junior-college player, Coleman started 34 games at TCU with 22 of those coming at left tackle. Blessed with long arms (34 7/8 inches) and good size (6-4, 313), Coleman might get pressed into service earlier than he’s ready, but he eventually can develop into a solid starting tackle.

68. New England Patriots: Caedan Wallace, OT, Penn State

The right tackle opposite Olu Fashanu at Penn State, Wallace is a huge man (10 3/4-inch hands and 34-inch arms). He also plays with great explosion and good speed into the second level as a road-grading blocker. Wallace is 24 years old, and there are some technique inconsistencies that might just be part of life, but he’s a powerful run blocker who moves people at the point of attack.

69. Los Angeles Chargers: Junior Colson, LB, Michigan

Nobody knows Colson better than Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh, and the linebacker fills a need on the field — and in the locker room. An inspirational force for the national champs, Colson led the Wolverines in tackles each of the last two seasons. Physical and athletic, Colson (6-2, 238) will exude professionalism and garner instant respect.

70. New York Giants: Andru Phillips, CB, Kentucky

One of the most versatile corners in the draft, Phillips can play inside or outside — and even safety, if need be. A very physical, hyper-competitive player who will find a way to get on the field immediately, Phillips boasts a 42-inch vertical and plays with terrific speed. He’s also a very mature youngster from a high-achieving family. An easy favorite among the Day 2 cornerbacks.

A rising NFL Draft prospect who's on a quest for balance: 'Football can mess with you'

71. Arizona Cardinals (from TEN): Isaiah Adams, G, Illinois

Arizona needed some depth and toughness on the offensive line, and Adams provides it. Although he may not start right away, Adams has the skills to work into a starting role, perhaps by Year 2. After two collegiate seasons in Canada and two in junior college, Adams (6-4, 315) developed into a key starter for the Illini (14 starts at left guard, 10 at right tackle).

72. Carolina Panthers (from NYJ): Trevin Wallace, LB, Kentucky

A rangy, big linebacker, Wallace (6-1, 237) has enough speed and burst to be a three-down linebacker in the NFL — and there’s nothing wrong with the slot where he landed. However, Carolina (1) traded up for a receiver who needs a lot of technique work ( Xavier Legette ), (2) traded up for a running back (Jonathon Brooks), and (3) selected a linebacker. The Panthers had more pressing needs.

73. Dallas Cowboys (from MIN via DET): Cooper Beebe, G, Kansas State

Dallas is rebuilding its offensive line and may have picked up the steal of the draft thus far. Not to get too hyperbolic, but Beebe has some parallels to another third-round pick from 17 years ago: Marshal Yanda, by Baltimore. Beebe was a consensus first-team All-American last year and boasts 48 career starts at three different positions.

Grade: A-plus

74. Atlanta Falcons: Bralen Trice, Edge, Washington

A bit of an acquired taste, Trice’s lack of size (32 1/2-inch arms) and speed (4.72 40) certainly gave plenty of folks pause during the evaluation process. His work ethic, competitive drive and general violence at the point of attack, though, will make him a presence on an NFL roster. He might not be an every-down star, but he’s a high-floor player.

75. Chicago Bears : Kiran Amegadjie, OT, Yale

Chicago GM Ryan Poles is known for addressing his offensive line, so it’s no surprise he did so here. But with glaring holes at defensive tackle and defensive end, this is a boom-or-bust choice. Amegadjie (6-5, 323) has left tackle arm length (36 1/8 inches) and was a two-time All-Ivy League offensive lineman, despite playing just four games in 2023 because of a torn left quad. Still, this might have been a reach.

Grade: C-minus

Meet Kiran Amegadjie, who believes he's 'the most interesting prospect' in the NFL Draft

76. Denver Broncos : Jonah Elliss, Edge, Utah

Elliss, son of former NFL defensive tackle Luther Elliss, is a smaller edge rusher who doesn’t have great testing numbers — but he made a lot of plays at Utah, because of his effort and general awareness. A highly productive defender who has a deep bag of tricks, Elliss is more of a third-down pass rusher than a three-down edge. He’ll make plays in the right scheme, though.

77. Las Vegas Raiders: Delmar Glaze, G/T, Maryland

Las Vegas reached at this pick and missed on a few obvious needs by doing so. Glaze (6-4, 315) is a prospect many scouts saw as guard — and probably a fourth-round prospect. The Raiders have yet to address their defense, which is what they needed coming into Friday. Glaze might develop into a starter, but his selection doesn’t match either need or value.

78. Houston Texans (from SEA via WAS/PHI): Calen Bullock, DB, USC

Long and thin with good speed, Bullock plays under control in coverage and could even take some corner reps, if need be. A ballhawk with a lot of range, Bullock (188 pounds) is very light for his frame and better versus the pass than as a run defender. He’s a nice player, but maybe not the best safety available here.

79. Indianapolis Colts (from JAX via ATL/ARI): Matt Goncalves, G/T, Pitt

Indianapolis moved up three spots to grab Goncalves, who played both left and right tackle at Pitt. Goncalves (6-6, 327) is a powerful mauler who’s more than likely to kick inside in the pros. This was too high for Goncalves, who was projected as a fifth-rounder — and that’s especially true considering the Colts traded up.

80. Cincinnati Bengals: Jermaine Burton, WR, Alabama

One of the more improved receivers in this class over the last two seasons, Burton blossomed into a big-time ball tracker in the air and made a ton of key plays for Alabama. He didn’t have the type of college career people expected, however, after transferring early on. But he did finish better than he started and has room to grow.

Grade: B 

81. Seattle Seahawks (from NO via DEN): Christian Haynes, G, UConn

This might wind up a steal for the Seahawks, who are trying to fortify the interior of both lines. One of the top offensive linemen in college football for multiple years, Haynes started 49 career games at right guard over four seasons. He was known for his physical play, power and leadership qualities.

82. Arizona Cardinals (from IND): Tip Reiman, TE, Illinois

Built like a professional wrestler, Reiman (6-4, 271) is more of a traits prospect right now, but he’s a phenomenal athlete. He loves to run block, too — takes it seriously and wants to get better at moving people. He has great technique at the point of attack and room to grow as a receiver. This is a sneaky good pick and hands Arizona one of the top sleepers in the NFL Draft.

83. Los Angeles Rams: Blake Corum, RB, Michigan

Built like a bowling ball, Corum (5-7, 205) is strong, tough and durable. He attacks the hole with incredible quickness and power that belies his frame. Corum set the Michigan single-season touchdown mark in 2023 with 27 scores and holds the Wolverines’ career touchdown record with 58. He will provide a nastiness to the Rams’ run game.

84. Pittsburgh Steelers: Roman Wilson, WR, Michigan

One of the most reliable senior receivers in the class, Wilson’s sudden explosion and speed at the line of scrimmage are difference-makers. His route running and catch consistency only got better with every week at Michigan, too. A big-time competitor who will block his butt off, Wilson makes for not only great value in the third round, but a perfect fit for what the Steelers want to do moving forward.

85. Cleveland Browns: Zak Zinter, G, Michigan

A tone-setter at Michigan, Zinter was an All-American and two-time All-Big Ten guard. He missed the last three games of Michigan’s title run with a broken leg, but that didn’t detract from a stellar career. Zinter (6-6, 309) was considered the Wolverines’ best lineman last year and is a true mauler at the point of attack. The best part: He won’t have to start right away.

86. San Francisco 49ers (from PHI via HOU/IND/PHI): Dominick Puni, G/T, Kansas

A bit surprising Puni made it this far down the line. The Kansas standout is a guard/tackle prospect who got a lot of pass-protection work in college but also translates well to guard. A big man (33 3/8-inch arms, 10 1/8-inch hands), Puni needs to make sure he’s consistent with his bend — especially if he sticks outside — but there is a lot of potential here. He might even be able to play center.

87. Dallas Cowboys: Marist Liufau, LB, Notre Dame

After a brilliant first two rounds, the Cowboys reached here — Liufau (6-2, 234) was a projected sixth-round prospect. He is a high-energy player and likely a four-facet special teamer, but this was way too high. There were multiple starting-caliber interior linebackers available at this point. Liufau might get there, just not for a few years.

88. Green Bay Packers: MarShawn Lloyd, RB, USC

A bowling ball with wheels, Lloyd is a 220-pounder with 4.46 speed and a lot of burst in and out of his cuts. He has fewer than 300 college carries on his body, too, and averaged better than seven yards per rush last season. He’s a three-down back who can catch passes. This was a need for Green Bay, and Lloyd will be ready to contribute right away.

89. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Tykee Smith, S, Georgia

Tampa Bay once again plucked a solid defensive player that filled a need. Smith (5-10, 202), who ran a 4.46 40 at the combine, looks like a nickel and played on one of college football’s top defenses. He should be a plug-and-play defender for the Bucs.

90. Arizona Cardinals (from HOU): Elijah Jones, CB, Boston College

A 24-year-old, six-year college player who dealt with several injuries, Jones had his best coverage year in 2023 (five interceptions and 13 pass breakups in nine games). He’s big, long and a good athlete — but he’s also skinny and not very strong. A risk-reward player, Jones has good press skills and comes with a lot of question marks.

Grade: C 

91. Green Bay Packers (from BUF): Ty’Ron Hopper, LB, Missouri

The Packers opted for a second linebacker (after taking Edgerrin Cooper in Round 2). Hopper (6-2. 228), a projected fifth-round pick, is a quality athlete who’s likely headed for a special-teams role. It might take a few years before Hopper challenges for a starting job, and Green Bay really could have used a cornerback here.

92. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (from DET): Jalen McMillan, WR, Washington

The third member of Washington’s elite WR trio – and the sixth member of the Huskies’ 2023 offense — off the board. McMillan is a long inside receiver with the body to line up outside (6-1, 203) and enough burst to create separation over the middle or vertically. He missed games with a knee injury and isn’t very strong as a blocker, but McMillan can be a big-play threat when he’s healthy.

93. Baltimore Ravens: Adisa Isaac, Edge, Penn State

Once again, Baltimore comes away with a productive, high-value pick. Playing opposite Chop Robinson, Isaac led Penn State with 7.5 sacks and 16 tackles for loss last year. A team captain, Isaac (6-4. 247) was a defensive leader for the Nittany Lions, and he is well-rounded as a pass rusher and run defender. Blessed with long arms (33 7/8 inches), Isaac often doesn’t allow tackles to get their hands on him in pass-rush situations. This is value meeting need.

94. Philadelphia Eagles (from SF): Jalyx Hunt, Edge, Houston Christian

A high school wide receiver and a safety at Cornell before he bulked up at Houston Christian, Hunt is now a 6-3, 252-pound edge rusher with 10-inch hands and 34 3/8-inch arms. A former basketball player with elite burst and great speed, Hunt is more traits than polish right now. The upside is there, though, and the positional versatility he offers is highly intriguing.

95. Buffalo Bills (from KC): DeWayne Carter, DT, Duke

A highly respected three-year starter, Carter (6-3, 302) can immediately step into the Bills’ rotation and be an impact performer. Buffalo lost a ton of leadership during an offseason purge, but Carter will help fill that void. He’s a physical, relentless interior defender. This is a good pickup by the Bills, and a player who fits their culture.

96. Jacksonville Jaguars: Jarrian Jones, CB, Florida State

Another nickel corner off the board. Jones (5-11, 190) ran a 4.38 40 at the combine and plays with terrific burst and speed, both in press and zone. He makes plays, but he’s also a gambler who takes too many chances and gets caught looking. This cornerback class, especially inside at nickel, is all about team preference. Arguably, there were better options here.

97. Cincinnati Bengals: McKinnley Jackson, DT, Texas A&M

The Bengals have made it abundantly clear in this draft that they want to bulk up in the trenches. In Jackson, Cincinnati added a defensive tackle who will eat up space and spell the starters for a few years. Jackson (6-1, 326) was projected as a sixth-rounder, so this is a reach, but he might help keep the Bengals’ starters fresh for a series each half.

98. Pittsburgh Steelers (from PHI): Payton Wilson, LB, NC State

A tackling machine with sideline-to-sideline speed (4.43 40), Wilson made 402 tackles in his career and is one of the fastest and most instinctive tacklers in this class. There are major injury concerns, however. In fact, NFL Network reported Friday that Wilson has no ACL in one of his knees. He might not make it beyond his first contract (he’s already 24 years old), but Wilson is ready to play right now — if he stays healthy.

99. Los Angeles Rams: Kamren Kinchens, S, Miami

A two-time All-ACC selection, Kinchens (5-11, 203) had a combined 11 interceptions and 22 passes defended the last two seasons. He’s not the fastest defensive back (4.65 40 time), but Kinchens is instinctive, tough and a tremendous blitzer. He’s also a special-teams demon and will help the Rams in all facets. A terrific pickup at the end of the third round.

100. Washington Commanders (from SF): Luke McCaffrey, WR, Rice

A member of the famous McCaffrey family, Luke McCaffrey (Christian’s brother and Ed’s son) is a big, explosive target with great speed and movement skills. A former college quarterback, McCaffrey’s first year as a receiver came in 2022 at Rice, and he produced 58 catches for 723 yards and six TDs. A growing prospect and a nice player — however, probably not the best receiver on the board here.

The UN's nuclear watchdog chief will visit Iran next week as concerns rise about uranium enrichment

Jon Gambrell

Associated Press

JERUSALEM – The head of the United Nations' nuclear watchdog will travel to Iran next week as Tehran's nuclear program enriches uranium a step away from weapons-grade levels and international oversight remains limited, officials said Wednesday.

Rafael Mariano Grossi's visit will coincide with a nuclear energy conference Iran will hold in the central city of Isfahan, which hosts sensitive enrichment sites and was targeted in an apparent Israeli attack on April 19 . It also coincides with wider regional tensions in the Mideast inflamed by the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip, including attacks on shipping by Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen .

Recommended Videos

The director-general of the International Atomic Energy Agency will visit Iran on May 6 and 7, the Vienna-based agency said. It did not elaborate on his schedule or his meetings.

Iranian state television has described the conference in Isfahan as an “international conference on nuclear sciences and techniques.” The broadcaster quoted Mohammed Eslami, the head of Iran's civilian nuclear program, as saying on Wednesday that Grossi will attend the conference and meet with him and other officials.

“I am sure that the ambiguities will be resolved and we can strengthen our relations with the agency within the framework of safeguards and” the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty , Eslami said.

Tensions have only grown between Iran and the IAEA since then-President Donald Trump in 2018 unilaterally withdraw America from Tehran's nuclear deal with world powers. Since then, Iran has abandoned all limits the deal put on its program and now has enough enriched uranium for “several” nuclear bombs if it chose to build them, Grossi has warned .

IAEA surveillance cameras have been disrupted, while Iran has barred some of the agency's most experienced inspectors . Iranian officials have increasingly threatened they could pursue atomic weapons, particularly after launching an unprecedented drone-and-missile attack on Israel last month.

Iran has always denied seeking nuclear weapons, saying its atomic program is for purely civilian purposes. However, U.S. intelligence agencies and the IAEA say Iran had an organized military nuclear program up until 2003.

The latest American intelligence community assessment says Iran “is not currently undertaking the key nuclear weapons-development activities necessary to produce a testable nuclear device.”
