I expect the 2013 defense to be strong once again despite losing some solid contributors such as Jordan Kovacs, Will Campbell, Craig Roh, Kenny Demens, and JT Floyd. Here is how I see the 2013 depth chart shaking out with no true freshman included.
SDE: 1. Brennen Beyer – Junior

Quarterback
Devin Gardner continues to improve at an amazing rate. The better Devin plays, the more Al Borges has opened up the playbook and there has been little drop off in play. Devin made several NFL caliber throws on Saturday that Michigan fans haven’t seen since 2007. Throwing the deep 15-20 yard out route between . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Iowa

Quarterback
The QB play wasn’t always pretty on Saturday, but Denard Robinson made enough plays in the end with both his arm and his legs to put Michigan in position to win the game. Robinson completed just 48% of his passes on the day but converted some critical 3rd down passes to extend drives. Denard . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Little Brother

Quarterback
Eliminating turnovers has been the point of emphasis for Denard Robinson since the spring. Through the early part of the season Denard had seemingly ignored what had been stressed to him by the coaching staff all off season. While Denard was responsible for a fumble a week ago, Denard has cut out the interceptions . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Illinois

2012 Game Preview-Alabama
What to watch on offense
Since taking over the Crimson Tide in 2007, the running game has been hallmark of Alabama’s offense under Nick Saban. While Saban and Co. have spoken publicly about opening up the offense and throwing the ball more, the running game still figures to play the leading role . . . → Read More: Cowboys Classic Game Preview

The secondary is a position Michigan has had a lot of trouble recruiting over the recent years. Despite that, this is an area of strength for Team 133 as they return all key contributors from a year ago. Let’s take a look at the projected depth chart for the 2012 season.

1. Michigan 10-2 (7-1)
2012 Forecast
IF the Wolverines can find somewhat productive replacements for Mike Martin and Ryan Van Bergen and find consistency on offense, they should have another very good season.

Quarterback
Players at Michigan are ultimately judged by how they perform against Ohio. While all position groups have to deal with an added level of expectation against the Buckeyes, no position group endures more pressure than the QBs. QBs are judged above all else by their record and performance against Ohio. For much of the . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Ohio

Quarterback
The QBs really didn’t have to do much in this game thanks to the play of the RBs. Denard opened up the game red hot going 6-6 through the air. Some of the same bad habits that have gotten him into trouble all season crept back in after the hot start. When pressured, Denard . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Illinois

Quarterback
This was by the most efficient day for the quarterbacks that we’ve seen all season. It wasn’t a huge day statistically through the air or the ground but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. The offense has been dependent on the play of the QB for the entire year. Saturday was the first game . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Purdue

Quarterback
Saturday was just a rough day for the QB position across the board. While the QB play was heavily influenced by other factors, the QBs didn’t play well on their own. It is certainly difficult to make plays while under constant duress but even on plays where there was time and open receivers, both . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Michigan State

Quarterback
Inconsistency was the word of the day for Denard. Denard can go from pinpoint accuracy to complete terror in the span of two plays. 95% of the passes he threw were right on the money, the other 5% were way off the mark While it may seem unfair to judge a QB based on . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Northwestern

Quarterback
This one is pretty easy. The rushing performance by Denard was great, while the passing performance left a lot to be desired. Denard’s 55 yd run really sparked an offense that was stagnant up until that point. The 198 rushing yards that Denard piled up is nothing to sneeze at, even against Eastern Michigan. . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Eastern Michigan

Quarterback
I’ve debated long and hard on how to grade Denard’s performance from this game. On the one hand he really struggled to execute in the passing game, there were horrible throws which were matched with even worse decisions. On the other hand Denard was asked to do things that he has long struggled with . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Notre Dame

Quarterback
Not surprisingly Denard Robinson had moments of both good and bad, though there was none of the spectacular plays that we have come to expect from #16. On the plus side Denard seemed more comfortable under center than he did in the spring, he didn’t turn the ball over and his decision making . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Western Michigan
