For both the saints and bushrod would it be best for him to get the franchise tag and go out and get a bigger contract next year being the market is full of top LTs 
Saints draft defensive in the first this year and get the LT in the draft next year.
Any idea on what a franchise tag on Bushrod would cost this year?

last year it was $10.7 million, not a viable alternative IMO
and someone will sign him if the Saints don't. He's 28, so a 4-5yr deal here could be his last big pay day. There are some big name LTs potentially out there. If they do move (like Jake Long) those teams will need replacements too.

$10.5m. I'm down for Lane Johnson in the first and maybe slightly overpaying an aging vet (McKinnie would be a really good option) for a year or two while Johnson plays RT for a year (he played both LT and RT at OU). I think we can find a solid project at OLB in the 3rd, not so easy with a LT, even though we're great at drafting OL in the mid rounds. There's a chance LJ isn't even there at 15, though. He had a good senior bowl.
ETA: Lacanforna has it at 9.8m in 2013.
