You have no real idea how much decent insurance would be for these guys.

Seriously, I work in Benefits. For a group like former NFL players, it would be astronomical. Not that the NFL couldn't afford it, but who gets less $$ to cover those guys?

Mike Ditka has proposed a plan where each team would put in a certain amount of money that would be enough to pay for an annuity to cover all of the players in question. It's a small amount of money by today's NFL standards.
