INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - The San Francisco 49ers won a coin toss Friday and will get the sixth pick in the April draft, followed by the Oakland Raiders. The Bay Area teams both finished 4-12 last season, tying for the sixth and seventh picks. Because they also tied on strength of schedule, a coin toss was required. The draft will be held in New York on April 29-30. Houston, New Orleans, Tennessee, the New York Jets and Green Bay have the first five picks.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press.
