Yeah, a couple problems with this. For one, a minimum contracts don't count towards salary matching for hte purpose of trades, so the idea of packaging a bunch of minimum guys won't actually work. Additionally, a sign-and-trade player needs a contract of at least 3 years.
If he did accept the qualifying offer we could then trade him for the trade exception. I'm assuming him accepting the QO does put a moratorium on when he can be traded, but am not 100% sure on that. Even so, if he were to start the season on the Bulls roster and then get traded as soon as he was eligible that would certainly be an interesting option. At this point I'm not sure if he is going to get any more than the QO from any other team.
