SportsFilter: The Monday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.

If they sign Kelly, they won't have to worry about trying to get some sort of value for Kaepernick. Chip will want that guy. Gabbert would have to take his now proven ability to move an offense down the field a bit to someone else's system.

Tomsula has been run off the claim by the Niners after just one year and will have to pan for gold elsewhere.
