I wouldn't pick Denard, but I'm no Michigan Man

I'd go with Tom Brady because of his impressive NFL credentials

Yeah, I just want this to be a team that UM fans will smile when they see who's on it.  And if I used Robinson, it would actually take a RB spot away if I used his rushing yards.
So good call, thanks.

Would Michigan fans want Rick Leach in there over Brady?

If done accurately, then the whole entire roster would be pre-civil war.

I think I'm leaning towards career.  
Career comp %, Int %, yards per carry, yards per reception, etc.

QBs: Hard to quantify this.  I looked at wins over rivals and championships.

Brian Griese, 1995-1997, 2-0 vs. Ohio State, National Champion
Forest Evashevski, 1938-1940, 3-0 vs. Ohio Stand and Michigan State
Benny Friedman, 1925-26, 2-0 vs. Ohio State and Michigan State
Alfred Barlow, 1903-05, 3-0 vs. Ohio State, National Champion

Running backs:  So many good one to pick from...

Mike Hart
Rob Lytle
Billy Taylor
Tom Harmon

Wide receivers:

Braylon Edwards
Amani Toomer
Desmond Howard
Anthony Carter

Would you guys want another good WR there in the last spot, or do you think it'd be weird not including a great TE?

IMHO it would be weird to not have a TE on EVERY all-time roster. 

Some schools might have more than one out of their 6 pass-catchers, but just to make it uniform I wouldn't make any school with zero TEs.

Yeah, I was thinking about the 3 yards and a cloud of dust programs, but you're right.
