I think the Silmarils had some kind of addictive power as well. Feanor was really uber possessive, to the point of paranoia about them, IIRC, and I wouldn't imagine Morgoth would be willing to let them out of his sight once he'd got them.

Not to mention, dragons are treasure-hungry. I think if he handed a Silmaril to a dragon, he'd probably have never gotten it back.
