NFL's Contingency Plan if a Team Suffers a Mass Casualty Situation (i.e. Plane Crash)
 
Morbid yes, but interesting:

http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports...lans/94610148/

The NFL has had a disaster plan laid out for more than three decades.

"We do have a long-standing plan in the event NFL players are lost in a common accident," a league spokesman told USA TODAY Sports. "But today is not the day to discuss our plan out of respect for those who lost their lives."

According to ESPN, the league labels the loss fewer than 15 players killed a “Near Disaster,” which gives the impacted team the right to be the first to claim players off waivers for the remainder of the season. That team would continue the season. If the quarterback was among those lost, it would be allowed to select a third-stringer from another team,

The commissioner would decide whether a team would continue in a “Disaster” scenario where 15 or more players were killed. Along with the "Near Disaster" protocols if the team is able to finish the season, that team would get the first overall pick in the NFL Draft and there would be a dispersal draft where teams could protect as many as 32 players.

It's only a matter of time...

I always kind of figured that this was how we got Dorsey. (Disaster scenario, at least.)

Chiefs have already exercised this plan. Pioli got us in a train wreck so we were given Andy Reid and a 3rd string QB.
