Its not only the salary that is better in the NFL. For each season he plays in the NFL he'll get 5.5k towards his NFL pension which he can start collecting at 55. I think the pros out wiegh the cons by a fair bit and by playing it right and getting into the right situation he covers all his bases and is set for life. I read somewhere that its also protected and even OJ simpson is collecting his pension of $28,000 a year and its protected from his wrongful death lawsuit.
