HR3 - Falcons draft moves will be more for their long term vision not immediate future In hour three Mike Johnson, Ali Mac, and Beau Morgan quickly touch on some of the biggest headlines around the local and national sports scene, continue to talk about which Atlanta Falcons players could be on the trading block during this year's NFL Draft besides Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts, explain why they think the Falcons don't currently have the resources to make a big playoff push next season, and that being the reason why Falcons General Manager Ian Cunningham won't make any crazy trades during this year's NFL Draft that involve current Falcons players. Then, Mike, Ali, and Beau spend some time with 92.9 The Game's own Braves insider and reporter, Grant McAuley! Beau, Mike, Ali, and Grant discuss if Grant thinks Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Bryce Elder could be an MLB All-Star this season, if there's a good comparison for Bryce Elder when it comes to the 90s Braves pitchers, which Braves player has had the most surprising start to this season good or bad, what the roster will look like once catcher Sean Murphy and shortstop Ha-Seong Kim return from injury, which players will get less playing time and may no longer be on the big league club roster because of the returns of Murphy and Kim, how important this upcoming stretch of the season is for the Braves, if Grant thinks the philosophies and coaching of Braves hitting coach Tim Hyers has finally rubbed off on Braves hitters, or if the team's and individual players improved offense is because of guys being healthy and starting to get into a rhythm, some Braves batters not necessarily hitting for power but still doing a good job of getting on base, and who Grant thinks is going to win the Wrestlemania match this weekend between Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi. The Morning Shift crew also talks about the origins of some of your favorite and most popular sayings in the world, and then closes out hour three by answering people's questions about anything in the Morning Mailbag!
