If he was, the Packers would surely have traded him
Nobody wants that player on that contract - so apparently he isn't worth that in the eyes of NFL teams
He still has 1-2 years left, but he's an undersized rotational DL coming off a foot injury. He's clearly on the decline, but he's not done yet

He'll find work, Philly likes collecting vet DL maybe he goes there.
I wish him all the best and thank him for his 5 star efforts in Titletown

I doubt he comes to Philly, but I'd prefer him over Jernigan. After being stuck in Wisconsin, I bet he signs with Rams or Chargers or 49ers.

He's a Jersey guy, so I figured the chance to be closer to home made sense.

Hes been on record of preferring the slower lifestyle. Iowa to Wisconsin. My bet is he lands in Cleveland or Dallas.

Makes sense. Front office guys Dorsey, Highsmith, Wolf are all familiar with him and they've already added a few former Packers
JC Tretter, Brian Price, Morgan Burnett, Damarious Randall, Jerome Whitehead

Unless they use the cap space it looks like it's just to save money which isn't good aesthetics sometimes. 

Cap space rolls year-to-year.  Not sure where they stood before this, but it's no longer simply "use it or lose it."

Minnesota needs an interior pass rusher after losing Sheldon Richardson and Tom Johnson. They didn't really draft anyone to fill the void and brought back Shamar Stephen, who's more of a big body.

Is there room for him on the Bears? That would be filthy.

Bears definitely have the cap room but Pace is a really hard guy to gauge since he spent his first 3 years cleaning the mess Emery and Trestman left him, then he went into attack mode last year so we are kind of in unchartered waters with him. I think before Tru earns his mega-deal (as any starting QB gets for their 2nd deal) they want to pack as much talent around him to make sure he will be worth the massive investment. So I would definitely be for it even if he becomes a super sub rather than a true starter.  On a 1-2 year deal he would be able to choose his next destination as well and the Bears would still be able to re-sign some of their young core players, so his demands will play a big role too.

He doesn't have the length to play the two-gapping 5T IMO but you will hear a lot of Bears fans say they'd like to move Goldman out to 5T and let Daniels play NT. I'm certainly not opposed to it either. I'd be damn happy just to see Hicks and Goldman see less plays overall. There is room as Nichols is still growing but just became a starter, Bullard has somehow went from a 3T to a run stuffing specialist, RRH looks like he will be getting time at OLB at the moment, etc. So there is room there to add talent, plus of course Pagano will likely run much more stunts and attacking schemes from the front than Fangio did, so things are up in the air.

I doubt it will happen but would be happy to root for him instead of cuss him on Sundays.  lol
