Even though the NFL scrapped the official public release by the NFLPA for the yearly team report cards, the media world still found a way to obtain them and the Denver Broncos had high marks across the board for the most part.

For the most part, the Denver Broncos received improved grades in eight categories and were marked down in two categories.
The locker room grade is low because of the overall space inside of the locker room, where players don’t have much space to maneuver around gear backs, laundry carts, and media scrums typically take up two to three lockers, which forces players to wait to get to their locker if they need to.
George Paton receiving an A grade is a reflection of how most players feel about his approach. Players I’ve spoken to have indicated Paton’s transparency and collaboration with players.
Sean Payton had the same grade as he did last year, which was a B. Ownership received high marks with an A+.
