Here's how Broncos fans graded the 2013 Denver Broncos

We asked you to grade every position of the Broncos, and you delivered. Here are your Grade the Broncos results!

Even Adam Gase didn't want to grade Peyton

A few weeks ago, we had a huge response to our request that you grade the Denver Broncos players on their 2013 seasons, and we are happy to give you the responses to that survey. I'll try and keep it simple: you graded the players from A to F using the American style of grading; for each grade I translated those into scores using the median of an American grade. In other words:

- A: 95, since it's the median of 90-100.
- B: 85
- C: 75
- D: 65
- F: 55

For example, if a players graded out as an 89 in the table, they are a high B. Now I asked you to use a C as an average so remember being in the 70's range means, hopefully, you felt that player was average.

*All these tables are sortable*

Recall that we decided not to grade Peyton Manning, because there was a higher chance non-Broncos fans would have trolled that score, and because we felt confident in his grade being high if we were to truly poll strictly Broncos fans.
