  • This is a list of first-round draft picks made by the San Francisco 49ers of the National Football League. - FLs are discouraged to begin as This list of _____
  • The team joined the NFL along with the Cleveland Browns and the original Baltimore Colts in 1950. -the link to Baltimore Colts needs dabbing
  • Teams are ranked in inverse order based on the previous season's record, with the worst record picking first, and the second worst picking second and so on. - comma before third and
  • In the first three years as an NFL team, the 49ers picked three consecutive future Hall of Famers in the first round: Leo Nomellini, Y.A. Tittle, and Hugh McElhenny; since then, the team has picked three more future Hall of Famers in the first round (Jimmy Johnson, Lance Alworth, and Ronnie Lott), making it six in total - 1)be consistent, in the previous sentences, the date in which the players were chosen was noted, it should also be noted in these sentences 2)the last part of that sentence should be ;six overall.
  • A list of this topic should be made sortable, so the table need to be able to sort.
  • The references need to be formatted correctly using the {{reflist}} templates. In addition, use a general/specific refs format as seen in this FL.
  • Footnote#7 is not correct, the ref should not be in that way it should be made as a specific reference
  • The refs need to be correctly published with {{cite web}}.
  • Please note: Use of {{cite web}} is not required; it is merely a tool to help with construction and organization of references. KV5 • Squawk box • Fight on! 12:50, 13 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • True, but the citations still need to be formatted properly, and the citations to #7 and #12 at this point are not. Rlendog (talk) 05:19, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • All the footnotes need to be verified.
  • For the entries in the table that don't have notes available, they should have emdashes (the long dash located in the toolbox).
  • The color coding explanation should be in the key not above the table itself.--TRUCO 01:47, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Most of the transactions should have in line citations. One of the general references seems to cover them, but that is just a cover page, and one has to search to find the appropriate transactions. The transaction citations should link to the page that supports the transaction. Rlendog (talk) 05:19, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
