works just fine,
I get "top" placement with
\placefigure[bottom]{}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\paperwidth]}

Works here with the code below. The same result with and without adding 
"force". Result attached.

Do you have an MWE?

\showframe
\starttext
  some text
\placefigure[top]{top textwidth}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\textwidth]}
  some text
\page
  some text
\placefigure[here]{here textwidth}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\textwidth]}
  some text
\page
  some text
\placefigure[bottom]{bottom 
textwidth}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\textwidth]}
  some text

  some text
\placefigure[top,force]{top force 
paperwidth}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\paperwidth]}
  some text

\placefigure[here,force]{here force 
paperwidth}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\paperwidth]}
  some text

\placefigure[bottom,force]{bottom force 
paperwidth}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\paperwidth]}\stopmode
  some text

  some text
\placefigure[top]{top paperwidth}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\paperwidth]}

\placefigure[here]{here paperwidth}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\paperwidth]}

Hi Rik,
thank you for looking into this.
Even your example shows a problem: The first "bottom" figure is lower than 
"top", but not at the bottom.

In the following example only the first image is placed at the bottom, the 
others at top:

\showframe
\starttext
\input tufte
\placefigure[bottom]{bottom 
textwidth}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\textwidth]}
\input knuth
\input zapf
\input tufte
\placefigure[bottom,force]{bottom force 
paperwidth}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\paperwidth]}\stopmode
\input knuth
\input zapf
\placefigure[bottom]{bottom 
paperwidth}{\externalfigure[hacker][width=\paperwidth]}
\input lorem
\stoptext



You are, unfortunately, right about the problem. Alan Braslau brought up the same issue a while back ([NTG-context] \startplacefloat [location=bottom], 2015-10-16 <https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg79774.html>) and it was not dealt with at that point. Perhaps he devised a work-around for his use that he has not shared yet.

(Sorry for the errant \stopmode in the example. It did nothing, but does not belong there in any case.)
