2017 NFL Draft order following Week 14

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.

Drake Jackson's usage might vary week to week; Young 49ers CBs have an opportunity vs. Packers
Maybe soon, Drake Jackson will become the complementary bookend to Nick Bosa that the San Francisco 49ers envisioned for Dee Ford. That was the hope when the team used its first selection in this year's draft, a second-round pick, on the defensive end out of USC.
DeMeco Ryans is in his second year as the 49ers' defensive coordinator. He is working to ensure young players like Jackson are prepared for the rigors of an NFL season. He also wants to put those players in the best position to succeed. Their success is the 49ers' success, after all. For now, it looks like the 49ers have Samson Ebukam penciled in as the starter opposite Bosa. That role should eventually land with Jackson.
"With Drake, he's coming along," Ryans told reporters after Wednesday's practice.
Kyle Shanahan: 49ers were 'locked in' on Trey Lance and Mac Jones leading to 2021 draft
San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan joined the I Am Athlete podcast and was asked about the process leading to the team selecting quarterback Trey Lance with the No. 3 overall draft pick last year. There was a lot of speculation surrounding who the 49ers were looking to draft after trading up from the No. 12 spot. Many felt Shanahan had targeted quarterback Mac Jones, while many fans scoffed at the idea.
Jones was a target—along with Lance.
"We did the trade so early that it made me feel good about it because I knew before we did it how I felt about the quarterbacks," Shanahan said,
Deebo Samuel expects 49ers, Trey Lance to be 'hitting on all cylinders' by Week 1
Deebo Samuel made it through one of the toughest offseasons of his NFL career. He waited to see what would come of his contract extension. The San Francisco 49ers star saw several other wide receivers receive big paydays, making the already agonizing wait worse.
That is behind him now, though. San Francisco locked Samuel up through the 2025 season, making him one of the highest-paid receivers in the NFL and the second-highest paid player on the roster. Of course, he'll own the top spot once quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is moved.
"It's been a long six, seven months," Samuel told Tom Pelissero and Maurice Jones-Drew on NFL Network after Sunday's practice. "I'm just like, 'Hurry up and get this over with so I can get back out here with the guys.' I was more eager to
49ers-Packers: How to watch, stream, and listen to the Week 1 preseason matchup
The 49ers open the 2022 preseason with a home game at Levi's Stadium against the Green Bay Packers. It marks the sixth time the two clubs have met in the preseason and the first meeting since 2016. The 49ers lead the all-time preseason series 3-2.
San Francisco returns multiple key players from last season's team that reached the NFC Championship, including All-Pros WR Deebo Samuel and T Trent Williams, along with Pro Bowlers DL Nick Bosa, FB Kyle Juszczyk, and TE George Kittle. DL Arik Armstead and LB Fred Warner look to lead a defense that added CB Charvarius Ward, DL Kemoko Turay, DL Kerry Hyder Jr., LB Oren Burks, and S George Odum, as the team also brought in WR Ray-Ray McCloud III on offense, among others. Through the 2022 NFL Draft, the Niners brought in DL Drake
