The 2025 NFL Draft order has undergone some changes after a busy few days of games during the holiday week.

While the 49ers remain in the No. 11 overall spot as they await a "Monday Night Football" matchup with the Detroit Lions, another NFC West matchup reshuffled the draft order.

The Cardinals' 13-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams on Saturday dropped Arizona from the No. 15 overall pick to the No. 12 spot, just one behind San Francisco. However, after losses by the Indianapolis Colts and Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, Arizona now holds the No. 14 overall pick.

The highest pick the 49ers potentially could land in the 2025 draft would be the No. 11 overall pick.

San Francisco no longer can leap frog the New Orleans Saints for the No. 11 pick. The Saints' loss to the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday ensured that San Francisco at best could finish the season with the same record as New Orleans.

However, if both teams finish with the same record, the tiebreaker goes to New Orleans for having a weaker strength of schedule (.510) than San Francisco (.564).

San Francisco last held the No. 11 overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, selecting offensive tackle Anthony Davis out of Rutgers. Davis would go on to start 79 games for the 49ers, including eight playoff appearances, across six seasons.

During coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch's tenures with the 49ers, San Francisco has made a top-20 selection five times. Here is who the 49ers have taken with those picks.

  • Defensive tackle Solomon Thomas (No. 3 overall, 2017)
  • Offensive tackle Mike McGlinchey (No. 9 overall, 2018)
  • Defensive end Nick Bosa (No. 2 overall, 2019)
  • Defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw (No. 14 overall, 2020)
  • Quarterback Trey Lance (No. 3 overall, 2021)

Here is where the 2025 NFL Draft order stands after Sunday's games:
