Friday morning coin flips at the scouting combine in Indianapolis determined the fate for six teams, as three draft-order ties had to be broken.
With identical 7-9 records last season, the Chicago Bears and the Jacksonville Jaguars tied for the 10th overall spot in the NFL draft. Friday’s coin flip landed in favor of the Jaguars giving them the 10th pick in the draft. The teams will alternate selections in each round after.
The Denver Broncos had a keen interest in the results of this contest as they own the rights to Chicago’s first-round selection due to the Jay Cutler trade. That means after Jacksonville picks in the 10th spot, Denver will go next.
The second coin flip determined the drafting order between the Tennessee Titans and the Carolina Panthers, who each finished the season with 8-8 records. However, as with the first flip, a third team will be the actual benefactor of the results as the San Francisco 49ers own the Panthers‘ pick in the first round.
