2017 NFL Draft order following Week 14
Dec 12, 2016 at 8:51 PM

Yesterday,
we took a look at the draft position of the San Francisco 49ers following their 12th-straight loss. The 49ers were defeated 23-17 in overtime by the New York Jets at Levi's Stadium. While the complete draft order included all of Sunday's games, it didn't include Monday night's game between the Baltimore Ravens and the New England Patriots. Of course, that game, won by the Patriots, had no impact on the 49ers' projected draft spot other than raising their strength of schedule by .003.
There are still three more weeks left in the NFL season so the order could shift before then. The winless Cleveland Browns, who lost their 13th game of the season, maintain the top spot. A Cleveland win before the end of the season would help boost San Francisco into the top spot should the 49ers continue to underperform and lose.
The 49ers have the Atlanta Falcons, Los Angeles Rams, and Seattle Seahawks remaining on their schedule. The Browns have the Buffalo Bills, San Diego Chargers, and Pittsburgh Steelers remaining on theirs.
Below is the current draft order, based on playoff seeding (21-32), record, and strength of schedule (SOS), for all 32 first-round spots
if the season ended today. Of course, the order of playoff teams would eventually be determined by the completed playoff picture and Super Bowl winner.

McShay: Mac Jones won't start over Jimmy Garoppolo Week 1 if 49ers draft him
By David Bonilla
Apr 1, 2021
The argument for Mac Jones over some other quarterback prospects at No. 3 overall is that the former Alabama player might be among the most ready to step in and play. Some feel that Justin Fields of Ohio State or Trey Lance of North Dakota State could benefit from sitting and learning for a year. Much of that has to do with the system within which Jones played last year.
Fields and Lance are viewed as having higher ceilings than Jones, though. They may be better long-term prospects.
ESPN's Todd McShay released his latest mock draft and has the San Francisco 49ers selecting Jones with their top pick. That
Former NFL QB explains why criticisms of Justin Fields, potential 49ers draft pick, are 'bogus'

No one is questioning Justin Fields' athleticism. Some question the former Ohio State quarterback's ability to transition from the college game to the pros quickly. Mark Sanchez recently joined The Pat McAfee Show and explained why Fields' ability to learn an NFL playbook might not take as long as some might be anticipating. Maybe all of his skeptics, who want to find ways to bring the quarterback down, are wrong.
"For Justin, this guy, Dr. Goldman, he's a sports psychologist; I talked to him yesterday," Sanchez said (h/t to Jordan Cohn of 95.7 The Game). "He has some interesting

Zierlein on 49ers' draft plans: 'I think it's going to be Trey Lance'
By David Bonilla
Mar 28, 2021
San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan has his eyes on someone who he feels can be his quarterback of the future. Someone who can exceed the abilities of his current starter, Jimmy Garoppolo. The 49ers shocked the NFL world by trading up to the No. 3 spot in the upcoming draft, which starts in a month.
NFL Media analyst Lance Zierlein joined the Jake Atman Show this week and shared his insight into the decision to trade up (h/t to Patrick Tulini). San Francisco's comments that Garoppolo remains in the team's plans for at least the upcoming season offers a big hint to Zierlein regarding the 49ers' draft
