Anyone know when the coin flip is?

The Dallas pick and the C's own pick have to coin flipped due to ties. Just wondering when that is, I assume it's soon.

Isn't the coin flip only for lottery ties  (and only if to determine who gets the extra ball in a split)?

Nope, it's for all draft picks when there's a tie.

Should be announced sometime this afternoon.  League office closes at 4pm, I believe, so certainly by then.

Wow.  So are they going to do rocks paper scissors since it's a 4 way tie?  Seriously.  How do they do the 4 way flip?

Four balls (actually eight, two for each team) in the little blower thingie. The order in which they blow are the order in which you pick. Of course, both ATL and CLT had both their balls before we got picked.

Or they could have just used those D&D dice.

Random 4-way drawing.
