The Facts:
Following up on
a previous item. ... Chad Henne acknowledged last week he will "still have to compete" for the starting job with an established veteran after the club declined to draft a quarterback in April's draft. The Palm Beach Post speculated Tuesday that competitor could be the Carolina Panthers' Matt Moore.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The assertion is based on three factors: First, Moore has ties to Dolphins HC Tony Sparano and GM Jeff Ireland as both were on staff with the Cowboys when Dallas signed Moore as an undrafted free agent in 2007. Second, Moore is likely to be an unrestricted free agent once the lockout ends (and Carolina already has Cam Newton, Jimmy Clausen, Tony Pick and Brian St. Pierre on their roster). Third, Moore, despite being only 26 years old, has plenty of game experience with 11 starts and 20 appearances during the three seasons he's been on the Panthers' active roster. Given his youth, we'll go ahead and suggest that Fantasy Football owners with Henne on their rosters in Dynasty leagues might be more concerned if the Dolphins land Moore than if they secure the services of a higher profile -- and older -- veteran.
