NFL power rankings: Where 49ers sit after loss to Dolphins originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
Welcome to mock draft season, 49ers fans.
San Francisco and a handful of other middling teams officially were eliminated from the playoffs this week, and while the fight for postseason seeding is ongoing, we pretty much know the 14 teams who won’t be on a flight to Cancún in three weeks.
For the second-to-last time this season …
Here is where the 49ers sit in the NFL Week 17 power rankings after a 29-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins and heading into “Monday Night Football.”
32. New York Giants (Last week: 32)
Record: 2-13
With the first pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the New York Giants select …
31. Jacksonville Jaguars (Last week: 30)
Record: 3-12

Record: 3-12
Congrats, you probably just ruined your chances of securing the No. 1 overall pick. Was a meaningless win over the … *checks notes* … Jaguars worth it?
27. Cleveland Browns (Last week: 27)
Record: 3-12

26. Chicago Bears (Last week: 25)
Record: 4-11

25. Carolina Panthers (Last…
