How are limits set for draft protection?

In most cases, it is impossible to pinpoint where an athlete will be drafted unless they are the top pick in the draft. However, it is possible to predict the range where an athlete will be drafted, and the corresponding salary slots for that range and that particular position. Draft Protection ensures that an athlete is compensated if an injury or illness forces a team to draft that athlete lower than they were originally projected. 

Can draft protection be combined with other NIL coverage?

All Permanent Total Disability policies have riders and endorsements that can strengthen an athlete’s compensation. For example, an athlete can not only get Draft Protection, but also get a Critical Illness rider to protect against injuries that can end an athlete’s season, but not necessarily their career.
