Yes, Cris Cooley and the Bears defensive back play it. Some other players have a different view of it like Jake Plummer, who says it is ruining the game, he commented that its about winning and losing, not how many points he gets.

Yes, they are allowed. LT has himself on a team (as someone pointed out), and it's been noted that Jeremy Shockey plays. Shockey actually lost his league championship over two TDs that HE caught.
League rules do not prohibit players from playing fantasy sports, or the drafing of any player. As long as games are not thrown on purpose, or huge amounts of money are being gambled (remember, sports gambling is for some reason, illegal), then league rules do not prohivit it.
However, in college, athletes on collegiate teams are not allowed to play any fantasy sports. Some do, but if it found that they are participating (its easy for colleges to track, the said player will be removed from his collegiate team. This happened to one of my buddies on our schools football team.

Yep, unless it involves gambling in some way.
Even then, it would be difficult to prove that a fantasy team would at all be impacted by the effort or lack thereof of one player.
