As expected, the NFLPA's annual grades of NFL franchises leaked to the media, with ESPN getting the full details of the reports. The NFL, through a grievance and an arbitrator's ruling, blocked the public release of the NFLPA's report cards earlier this month. 

The union handed out marks in 17 categories, including head coach. No one got lower than a C-, a grade that belonged to the Cleveland Browns' Kevin Stefanski. He was one of nine head coaches fired from last season with one other, Pittsburgh's Mike Tomlin, resigning after the Steelers were eliminated from the playoffs. (Stefanski was quickly hired by the Atlanta Falcons, replacing Raheem Morris.) 

Here's a look at who got A's, Bs and Cs:
