Them, at the draft: "We know you have to move these guys before they walk for nothing. So this offer is much better than nothing."
Us: "Well then I guess they'll just walk for nothing."
Them, at the deadline: "Ready to deal yet?"
Us: "I don't know, are you ready to make a serious offer?"
Us, next June: "Ok, fine we'll take your offer."
Them: "Offer? Why would I offer you anything for players I can sign for free in two weeks?"
