Michael Bush to get the franchise tag?
Michael Bush - RB - Oakland Raiders
Jan. 2, 2012 - 1:50 PM ET

Beat writer Steve Corkran believes the Raiders are likely use the franchise tag on impending free agent Michael Bush.

Given Darren McFadden's injury history, the Raiders would be hard-pressed to let Bush test free agency. He'd likely flee Oakland for a shot at a clear-cut starting job. Bush started nine games this season, averaging 116.3 total yards per game but getting just 3.8 yards per carry during that span.
