The rollover is taxed in the calendar year you make it.  So if you do this on Feb 27, 2017 it will be taxed on the 2017 return.  

I would advise you to look at this again in perhaps early November 2017 when you know your taxable income (pretty close anyway) and then see how much you do while staying in the 15% tax bracket.

Here is a link to the tax brackets for 2016 and 2017.
