Each sport has it's own requirements and will have its own definition of "overall" athlete. I think you need to be a bit more specific on what you are looking for (I know it was a general question). If you look at the people listed so far...
Hockey Players...good on skates, agressive, in shape, smart..but could they keep up with a receiver in football? Endurance athletes have great endurance and have to have the smarts enough to compete over the long hall.
I'll throw out out...how bout the Ironman Triathelete...racing for hours on end has to mean the person has some athletic ability. Of course that person hasn't bulked up because they are in an endurance sport.
I don't think questions like this can be definitively answered...???
Just some thoughts...
