Brandon Marshall has reached out to Matt Flynn

Brandon Marshall is in recruiting mode. He’s looking for a good quarterback.

Marshall, in Hawaii for the Pro Bowl, told NFL.com’s Jeff Darlington that he’s already spoken with Packers quarterback Matt Flynn about coming to Miami.

“You’ve got some guys in the draft, but there’s not too many guys out there just walking the streets,” Marshall said. “Matt is available. . . . . We’ve talked. I reached out to him. I get it from Ray Lewis. Around this time of year, players talk to players.”

As Darlington notes, there’s nothing illegal with NFL players recruiting other players. Ultimately, it’s not like it’s going to make a big difference. The presence of salary cap room and Flynn’s former coordinator Joe Philbin are going to be bigger factors to Flynn than a call from Marshall.

It’s easy to forget that the Dolphins already have a decent quarterback under contract in Matt Moore. But Dolphins management has made it clear they are looking for an upgrade.

“Obviously, Matt [Moore] had a great year,” Marshall said. “You don’t want to take anything away from Matt, but I think we really bring in somebody who can compete and make the team better.

“We need someone who is going to grab a hold of our offense, hold everyone accountable and be that leader.”

Matt Moore is apparently not that leader. Perhaps Matt Flynn will be.

Looks like Matt Moore isn't a leader.
