From today's Washington Post
If the Texans lose today, they get the No. 1 pick because they will have the league’s worst record. If Houston wins, five teams could finish 3-13. The No. 1 pick would go to the team whose opponents have the lowest winning percentage; that is, the one that played the easiest schedule. Right now, the Saints appear to be in the lead there. If the Saints and Texans win, things get fun. A Lions win over the Steelers would hurt Green Bay; wins by the Colts and Raiders would hurt the Jets; and the 49ers would be greatly helped if Green Bay and New Orleans both win. The last time both won on the same weekend? Last Jan. 2. A Houston win could create a group of five teams with three wins. Under NFL rules, the team whose opponents have the lowest winning percentage would get the No. 1 pick in the draft |

Just watch for my updates in the NFL Week 17 item. To answer your question, no the 49ers can not draft higher than #2 - more likely 3-5 if they lose.

As a 49ers fan, I wouldn't mind getting the #2 pick if the Saints have #1. There's at least a decent chance that the Saints would prefer Leinhart to Bush given their situations at QB/RB, so there's a chance for a trade there. Not sure if it's still possible for the Texans to finish behind SF, though.
