Bill Belichick hardly took time to relish the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history when he declared ''in all honesty, we're five weeks behind in the 2017 season to most teams in this league.''
After overcoming a 25-point deficit to win their fifth title, the Patriots will pick last in the NFL draft April 27 in Philadelphia. Last year, they were stripped of their first-round pick in the ''Deflategate'' ruling that included a September suspension for Super Bowl 51 MVP Tom Brady.
Cleveland had the worst record in the league at 1-15 and will pick first, followed by San Francisco, Chicago and Jacksonville.
