I'm a layman and obviously know nothing about the business side of something like this, but would they keep entertaining the sale after the new league year starts? Certainly the NFL wouldn't want to see a team sold mid-season, would they have to shelve it again until next off-season?

I am still of the opinion that Dan is definitely on his way out, but I guess it just comes down to timing, now.

I'm guessing the league would indeed prefer for the sale to happen before the start of the league year, but that seems like a very short dead line to meet IMO. Maybe announced, but settled and up and running by March 15th ?
I'm sure the NFL wouldn't love it, but wouldn't it be possible for the sale to happen even during the regular season, sale contract signed and all, but to be declared effective a day after the SB ?

Yes, I guess that's possible too. I could see it working as long as it happens early enough in the new year that the new Owner(s) could have time to make coaching changes, FO Decisions, etc, with a little bit of time to prepare before doing their first draft.

But maybe the new ownership keeps everyone as they are for this year, if something gets done that early. I
