Here's the problem.
Teams can work out the perameters of a trade involving a franchised player, but that trade can not be consumated until that player signs his franchise tender.
In order for a deal to be worked out involving Bowe, they would have to have him standing by with pen and contract, and that contract would then have to be sent immediately to the commissioner's office for approval.
All that has to be completed for the trade to be consumated.
And it has to be done in a matter of minutes.
Virtually impossible.
