49ers win NFL Draft coin toss, will pick 9th overall

The coin toss between the San Francisco 49ers and Oakland Raiders to determine the ninth and 10th overall picks in the 2018 NFL Draft was held on Friday at the NFL Combine. The 49ers won the toss, and will pick ninth, while the Raiders will pick 10th.

The 49ers and Raiders finished the 2017 season with the same 6-10 record and the same strength of schedule numbers at .512. They are in separate conferences, which makes the coin flip the next tiebreaker down the line. I said several times before the toss that it’s a stupid tiebreak, win or lose, and I stand by that.
