Michael Bush out for awhile?

[Steelersfan]

Beat writer Jerry McDonald suggests Michael Bennett (thumb surgery) could miss "up to a quarter of the season or more."

The Raiders aren't providing a timetable. McDonald, after consulting with an orthopedic surgeon, believes Bush is "highly unlikely" to be ready to play in the opener. The doctor advised that the 4-6 weeks would be a "best case scenario" for a return from "Bennett's fracture" surgery. As Bush is a running back, it's unlikely that he'll be able to play with a "club" over his hand. Darren McFadden will enter the season as the starter with Michael Bennett as the backup. Rotoworld

Yes there's a typo on Roto's part...

Could be DMC's last chance to show what he's got. Finally a viable QB for the first time in his career...I suspect he is going to surprise a lot of people.

Only time will tell, I don't own McFadden in any leagues but I do have Bush in one...

LoL! I used that same rotoworld quote (i fixed the bennett typos) to trade DMac for the 10 & 12 picks in our rookie/FA draft. I took Demaryius Thomas at 10 & Johnny Knox at 12. I'm also a bush owner and now I can atleast root for him to win the job eventually. at worst his misfortune caused me to be able to get 3 out of my top 4 wrs on my board. (i took williams TB at 6). thanks Michael, now get healthy!
