He would be very nice to have at the moment. Even if we drafted ILB.

In this scenario (your scenario), the Bears have Bowman, Trevathan and Edmunds. Kwit would be a clear 4th in the pecking order. He's too good to be a 4th LB. And unless you cut Trevathan and/or Bowman (if he has a multi-year contract), then he's not going to see the field unless there is a disaster before his rookie deal is up.

So because he is too good, you want to trade him? The dude is making 774k this year and 864k next year. There is no reason to trade him as Bowman would be a stop gap at best and Edmunds can play outside. Not to mention injuries.

The Bears don't have the luxury of trading away good depth players who are dirt cheap.

Doesn't Freeman still have to serve his 10 game suspension? He was put on IR before he got suspended, right? I thought you had to be healthy in order to serve your suspension.

Since Freeman has not yet been officially cut, I imagine they are not interested in Bowman, which is too bad, because he had a very positive impact on the Raiders last year.

Trent Murphy & Jerrell Freeman both served their suspension on IR.

https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/football/news/bears-jerrell-freeman-reinstated-from-suspension/

Freeman's (concussion/pecotoral) completed his 10-game suspension and was officially reinstated Monday.

Freeman received the 10-game ban in late October for a repeat violation of the NFL's performance-enhancing drug policy and was able to serve the suspension while he remained on injured reserve due to a season-ending torn pectoral muscle in addition to a concussion. Though Freeman is under contract with the Bears through 2018, there isn't any guaranteed money left on his deal. If the Bears elect to release Freeman this offseason, it's possible he has played his last NFL game, as the linebacker acknowledged shortly after the suspension was handed down that his career could be over following his latest head injury, according to Jeff Dickerson of ESPN.com.

I think he would be a great signing, but it seems Pace is really focused on getting young players and building a team that can be cohesive for 4 or 5 years.

We all want youth on this team but Bowman would be a huge splash for this team! I would be very much intrigued on picking him up.
