Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Moore widely was considered the top quarterback in a thin NFL free-agent market and likely would have been courted by multiple teams. Moore wants to be a starter, but he's comfortable with the Dolphins and close friends with second-year quarterback Ryan Tannehill. Moore was a gritty performer in 2011, starting 12 games for the Dolphins and earning team MVP honors. His camp must have known there wouldn't be major money coming his way on the open market, but he's certain to become one of the NFL's highest-paid backups with the Dolphins. ... Moore's signing comes hours after Miami
agreed to re-sign wide receiver Brian Hartline on Thursday night.
