Eagles to draft No. 14 in first round after winning coin toss

INDIANAPOLIS -- The Eagles will draft No. 14 overall in the NFL draft in April after winning a coin toss against the Indianapolis Colts at the scouting combine on Friday.

In an event that drew fans to the bleachers and a live online audience, the NFL held a coin flip between the Colts and the Minnesota Vikings to decide which team would have the Nos. 14 and 15 picks because both teams finished with the same record and strength of schedule. The Vikings traded their pick to the Eagles, so the Eagles were the beneficiaries of the coin toss.
