It depends. Unlike most of their counterparts in the NBA and Major League Baseball, pro football players work in a realm that more closely resembles the real world.

In the NFL, getting big money requires staying on the field and producing. Those enormous contracts you read about? Only a portion of the money, usually less than half, is guaranteed.

Topping the list is Colts quarterback Peyton Manning, who, entering the last year of his contract, has met all the criteria to earn $15.8 million in 2010. Right behind Manning: Raiders defensive back Nnamdi Asomugha, who gets a guaranteed $28.6 million over the next two years, plus free agent status in 2012 if the club doesn't pay him at least $16.8 million.
