49ers Move Back up to Fifth in the 2016 Draft Order
Dec 13, 2015 at 9:48 PM
•
After Sunday's 24-10 embarrassment in Cleveland, the San Francisco 49ers dropped to a 4-9 overall record. The loss moved them back up four spots, where they were just two weeks ago, in the projection for the 2016 NFL Draft. Their record is tied with four other teams so it could shift dramatically in the final weeks.
They currently sit at the fifth overall spot. Last week, based on record and strength of schedule, the
49ers were penciled in with the ninth overall selection in the 2016 NFL Draft.
How high the team will actually select will be determined by the rest of the season and their final record. The top spot, once owned by the Cleveland Browns, now goes to the Tennessee Titans with Cleveland dropping down a spot. The Titans lost the top spot to Cleveland last week.
Monday night's matchup between the New York Giants and Miami Dolphins will have no impact on the 49ers' current spot, as both teams have a better record than San Francisco.
Below is the draft order, based on playoff seeding (21-32), record, and strength of schedule (SOS), for all 32 (31 if your don't count the New England Patriots) first-round spots if the season ended today.

49ers ranked as fifth-most valuable NFL franchise
By Rohan Chakravarthi
Aug 1
Sportico released its NFL valuations for the 2022 season, ranking every team and their current monetary value, and the San Francisco 49ers came in as the fifth-most valuable franchise, having a $5.18 billion valuation in the current year.
The valuation marks a 21% increase from the 49ers' 2021 number, when the franchise was valued at $4.27 billion, which was also the fifth-highest valuation in the NFL at the time.
With its $5.18 billion valuation, the 49ers rank behind the Dallas Cowboys, who are the most valuable franchise across all sports at $7.64 billion, the Los Angeles Rams, who stand at $5.91 billion, the New England Patriots, who stand at $5.88 billion,
Will the 49ers sign a veteran center? Will they move Deebo Samuel to tight end? And other mailbag questions answered
On Monday, the San Francisco 49ers began padded practices. The contract extension for Deebo Samuel was also announced. It's a fun time of the year, as the team prepares to make another run for a sixth Super Bowl championship.
We opened up the 49ers mailbag and had plenty of questions to choose from. Let's respond to a handful:
Diana Kayatani: There's talk about Jimmy possibly going to the Seahawks. If and when he leaves, where should he go?
Felix Watkins: Where do you think Jimmy is going?
The world awaits news on Jimmy Garoppolo. Will he be traded or released? Where will he go? Will he be a starter or a backup? How does he get his hair to look so nice?
I wish we already had the answer to those questions. The good
49ers move up in NFL.com power rankings
The San Francisco 49ers are trending upwards, even with reports from Santa Clara of quarterback Trey Lance having an up-and-down training camp. Still, the team is talented enough to withstand any growing pains by the second-year player and new full-time starter. Apparently, Dan Hanzus of Around the NFL knows this, and that's why Kyle Shanahan's squad has moved up one spot in NFL.com's most recent power rankings, landing at No. 4.
"It's full speed ahead for the Trey Lance era in San Francisco," wrote Hanzus. "There's likely to be some turbulence for a young passer with limited experience, but Lance has been set up for success after a
49ers Notebook: QB Trey Lance excited to have Deebo back; WR Danny Gray says 'It's all coming together'; OL Spencer Burford keeps dancing
The 49ers cut things fairly short when it came to post-practice media sessions on Saturday, but that doesn't mean there weren't any items of interest to pass along.
Quarterback Trey Lance and rookie wide receiver Danny Gray were the only players to speak to reporters after practice on Saturday, and each of them talked about a number of topics. Lance spoke about what he's seen from a number of veterans and young players on offense, while Gray discussed where he is in his development since being selected by the 49ers in Round 3 of the 2022 NFL Draft.
And there was another rookie on Saturday who put on a memorable show at practice, albeit in a unique way.
Here's a rundown of what was discussed Saturday afternoon.
