When is coin flip vs Ravens to determine draft spot?

Anyone know how long after the Super Bowl they do this? Thanks.

Does it really matter? Jerry will bungle the pick anyway!

Jerry will choose heads and lose.

A 20 page long thread will result focused on Jerry's ignorance to the "tails never fails" rule.

Is 1st round split up still with 1-16 day one? Since draft is only thing going for us now just wondering if pick 17 as 1st spot of day 2 gives better deal for trades.

It may amount to nothing, but that one slot higher in the middle of the 1st round does have potential value.
Depending on how the draft is going, who is on the board, and who is an interested trade partner, a one slot move at pick 16 is worth anywhere from a 4th to 6th rounder. That's significant.

I guess things balance out a little becasue you rotate each round...but the significance decreases each round, obviously.

I thought I saw a headline for an article that said historically the team that loses the coin flip usually comes out better in the draft in hindsight. Didn't read the article just noticed the headline.
