The NFL has notified its clubs they can resume operations, including most offseason activities, beginning Friday at 8 a.m. ET.
According to a statement issued by the league, team officials may immediately contact players to advise them about the hours the facilities will be open for use, to schedule medical and rehabilitation sessions and to set up meetings with coaches.
The league likely will address the start of the 2011 League Year on Friday. That would encompass player transactions such as free-agent signings.

So the lockout is "over," but what about a new CBA?

with all that is going on and all that is pending - I doubt they can have a new CBA before June at the earliest
once they put this in the hands of the lawyers all chance of an early resolution went out the window - lawyers get paid by the hour and the longer this goes on the more they make - there is no lawyer involved in this that will get paid more if this is resolved sooner - GUARANTEED
this will take a long, long time

The idea is that sometime tomorrow b4 noon, the NFL is expected to supply each team with how it will operate for the 2011 season. The majority expect that it will be 2010 rules until there is a new CBA.

Does this now mean that players can be traded???? That would make the draft a lot different.

Can't trade players is my understanding. The lockout has been lifted but technically the 2011 Season has not Officially began. That could happen tomorrow or next week. We just don't know anything today.
Roger Goddell is on Sirius right now and it doesn't sound like anything else is going to happen today.

According to profootballtalk the owners got a temporary stay from the eighth district court and the lockout is back on.
Bummer, I was looking forward to being able to get rid of AH.

Until this changes from the 8th Circuit's site "The League's motion for a temporary stay remains pending before the court", no stay decision

I know. I just saw that. Still, it doesn't look good for trade on the draft's second day.

The NFL has already said that there will be no trades of players during the draft. That isn't going to change no matter what the 8th circuit rules.
