INDIANAPOLIS -- There was good news for the Browns Friday morning as they won the coin toss with Tampa Bay and will pick third overallin April's NFL Draft.
The teams gathered at 7:45 a.m. to toss the coin. Tampa Bay's representative called heads, and the coin came up tails.
The toss was necessary because both teams finished with identical 4-12 records and identical opponents' winning percentages.
The Browns also won a combine coin flip tiebreaker in 2002 with Atlanta for the 16th overall pick.
Stay tuned to ClevelandBrowns.com throughout the day for more from the combine.

Of course, they also lost their former #6 overall pick to microfracture surgery:

It really is like the team is cursed or something.
They can't get two pieces of good news in a row.
