San Francisco 49ers
7 roto titles · 57 seasons (1970–2026)
Few franchises can match the San Francisco 49ers for roto silverware, with seven titles in 57 seasons. All of them came by 1998, and the franchise has not topped the standings in the 27 seasons since. Their average finish is 13.2 all time, against 17.0 over the last ten seasons, a step down from the franchise norm.
The best single roto season in franchise history belongs to Jerry Rice in 1987, worth a 4.6 z-score. He owns 11 of the franchise’s 50 best seasons outright. The All-Franchise Team below is strictly positional, which is hard on Colin Kaepernick, Brock Purdy and Alex Smith: each rates above somebody who made a team, but every slot at their position was already spoken for.
