Dolphins win coin flip, will pick #8/Video of Flip on Page 5

Only bad part of winning the coin flip is that Miami will now pick 42nd overall in the second round, behind the Panthers and Bills. If they would have lost the coin flip, they would have picked 40th overall in the second round, ahead of the Panthers and Bills. Still though, you can't be upset they won the higher draft slot in the first round. Also, we don't have to deal with the Ted Ginn memories that come with the 9th overall pick.

I'll take the first round advantage over the 2nd round anyday...the value of pick 8 versus 9 is worth much more than two spots in round two.....on the trade value chart its 50 points versus 20...which is the difference between a 4th round pick and a 6th round pick.

I knew they'd have some **** like this.

That's why I asked all of those questions in the original thread.

These dudes cover EVERYTHING now. Surprised we don't get to watch urine testing on NFL Network.

First year in my knowledge that there was been video released of the actual flip. This is obviously something new. Wasn't a heads or tails coin though, it was a coin with the logos of both teams. The Dolphins get to keep the coin.

I was just thinking to myself how sweet would it be to be able to keep that coin. Ireland should keep that "lucky coin" in his wallet/shoe at all times.
 
Can someone explain to me why winning the coin flip results in a lower draft position in the other rounds?
