Think of it this way, things that feel good aren't always good for you, like meth. Or so I've heard.
Lol look at us agreeing!

If you're rooting for the niners to win a meaningless game that hurts their long term goals, then you're not really a fan of the 49ers, you're a fan of instant gratification.
Doesn't have to hurt any long term goals. The player at #12 can be way better than the player at #7.
And in 2019 we we moved up 4-5 spots in the last week of the season allowing us to to take Bosa. Moving up helps too.

Pretty much. Be a Browns fan if you want to celebrate every win no matter the circumstance. We're here for Super Bowls.
Although I don't think the it's ok to lose applies here.
Look at all those high picks over the last 20 years (most not even with the team anymore) and they're just now about to make the playoffs for the first time in almost 20 years.
AJ Jenkins picked #1, and Brady picked at what # again?

I think we only moved up one spot.
Originally posted by Young2Owens:So then we agree then that there are no guarantees in the draft then, regardless of where you're picking. Cool.
Anyway, tbh if we lost I wouldn't have been devastated or anything, of course draft position is a silver lining. But I'll never root for the squad to lose. Not in my DNA.
Originally posted by NYniner85:Who says Jones will be there? You? They might have to move up for him just as well. QBs always get pushed up.
Originally posted by _Goldblooded_:It was more than that. Dallas winning moved us up further. Lots of games broke our way that week.

Not if the plan is to move up regardless...just cost more

Cole Beasley had a game winning TD that gave us the 2nd overall pick

I love the guy that always brings up Brady. He was drafted 20 years ago. How many players since then have been taken in the 6ths round. How many are pro bowlers. Now, do the same analysis for 1st rounders.

I think we only moved up one spot and that was because the Jets won if I remember.
Originally posted by Phoenix49ers:Who says that he won't? You're not going to have 5 QBs going in the top 10 picks. Only one time have there been more than 5 going in the first round period.
If you're arguing that Lawrence, Fields, Wilson, Lance and Jones will ALL go before the 49ers pick then I'll take the strong historical odds against that happening and disagree with you.

A lot of the 1st round picks that worked out weren't top 10 picks.
