LISTEN: Why all positions (Except QB) Should Be In Play In The Draft →

All that said, are we really sure they're the worst team in the NFL this year, though? In any other season, an 0-13 team would be a slam-dunk choice for the NFL's basement. But this isn't any other year. The San Francisco 49ers are 1-12 and haven't won since the season opener. They boast the league's worst defense giving up an average of 30 points and over 400 yards per game. The Jacksonville Jaguars are 2-11 and have lost eight straight. They close out the year with three division games, two of them on the road. Finishing the year with an 11-game losing streak is a real possibility, though not a surprising one for a team with Blake Bortles under center and a league-worst -17 turnover ratio. The Los Angeles Rams were once 3-1 but have dropped nine of their 10 last games en route to getting Jeff Fisher canned. They're last in the league in just about any offensive category you can name and they gave the Niners their only win of the season. (They'll play each other again on Christmas Eve, serving as...

Daniel Jeremiah explains why 49ers could still address pass rush in NFL Draft

Mock drafts will never please everyone, especially when they solely focus on the first 32 selections without offering perspective on what might come beyond the first round. Regarding the San Francisco 49ers, analyst Daniel Jeremiah's latest mock draft was no different. He projected former Penn State pass rusher Chop Robinson to join the Bay Area team. Why the skepticism from fans? The 49ers' free agency focus has been on revamping their defensive front. After allowing Arik Armstead, Chase Young, and others to depart for other organizations, the team addressed last season's inconsistent play by adding defensive ends Leonard Floyd and Yetur Gross-Matos, trading for defensive tackle Maliek

Brandon Aiyuk recently hinted that he might consider playing for the Pittsburgh Steelers if the San Francisco 49ers are unwilling to offer him a contract extension at market value and opt to trade him to the AFC team. Of course, that could be a negotiating tactic from Aiyuk's camp as the 49ers work to sign the receiver to a contract extension. That doesn't mean San Francisco isn't willing to talk to interested teams. The team reportedly sought the No. 17 overall pick and a player from the Jacksonville Jaguars in exchange for Aiyuk, but no deal materialized. 49ers insider Matt Barrows of
