How is it determined which team gets to pick heads or tails for the coin flip?

IIRC someone from the NFLs league offices flips the coin. The coin will have a logo of the Niners on one side and the raiders on the other side. Once flipped, whoevers logo is showing gets #9.

so thats why it'll take awhile to flip. I was thinking literally in a business full of millionaires and billionaires someone had to have a coin to flip haha.

Coin flip seems too random. Should be paper scissor rock showdown.

Or do what the XFL did. Put a football 15 yds away and have two personnel run at it. But use the owners instead.

March 2nd is the coin flip.
Our picks should be:
9-10
59
70,74-75
128
143
183
227,240
Hope we trade down from 9 to early 20s.
Grab another 2 nd and 3rd
Then trade up late first early 2nd with a 2nd and 3rd.
Then draft best OL 1st, best remaining ER with early 2nd.
Then RB and WR and a C with our remaining 2 and both 3
Need cb and wr help in FA.
Too easy.
And then championship😛

NFL spokesman tells me Rod Woodson will toss the coin that determines whether Raiders or 49ers pick No. 9 in the draft. Toss will happen 12:30 p.m. EST Friday at the weight bench in Indy.
9th!!!

I see them trading back from 9 then trading up 70 or 74.

Ending up with a pick around 15 and two second rounders.

I'm really hoping a QB slips to 9 and a team in teens over pays to move up.
Draft experts:

If at number 9 your draft board shows a QB is the best player available, what do you do?
