He would be very nice to have at the moment. Even if we drafted ILB.
fangio might like to have him back in his d... and if bowman feels the same way it could give the bears a leg up.
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.
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.

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'd sign him in a heartbeat
