Will the Bears get a jump on Thursday nights free agency by first trading TE Greg Olsen?
Friends of the Bears TE say he was not happy about the hiring of offensive coordinator Mike Martz and quietly sent his agent Drew Rosenhaus into "trade request" mode. Now it appears the Bears may have some takers in the Arizona Cardinals or New England Patriots.
The question is can the Bears trade Olsen man for man before some players like Antrel Rolle hit the free agent market? Or is Olsen even enough for a 2nd round pick come April?
Friday in Indianapolis Head Coach Lovie Smith hinted a trade to move up wasn't out of the question, while General Manager Jerry Angelo feared the Bears didn't have enough.

So...assuming nobody is nutty enough to offer a second for Olsen...he would likely be more contract friendly than Owen Daniels and doesn't have the knee concerns.
Would a third or fourth for Olsen be worthwhile? It would free up some money to resign DeMeco and potentially Walter.
I don't think it'd happen, but would it make sense?
