For the New Orleans Saints, the free-agent revolving door is likely to begin in earnest

Thankfully, mercifully, the NFL lockout is over. Now comes the fallout.

While New Orleans Saints fans giddily celebrated the return of football on Monday, they would be wise to brace themselves for inevitable departures in the days ahead.

A key player or two -- or three -- is sure to leave via free agency in the coming days. It's an inconvenient truth of NFL life. Players come and go, especially good ones on good teams.

We don't yet know what the 2011 Saints are going to look like. The puzzle is still missing half of its pieces. But this year's Saints team is going to look vastly different than the 2010 edition.
