GMs come and go and GMs have long memories. If you hang up on someone calling to entertain a trade, that GM will remember on the day you call him wanting a trade. It doesn't mean you have to make a deal with the guy, but why burn bridges in a field where you may need that bridge yourself? There will come a day when the Bills want to made a draft trade and Beane knows that he can call up Veach and ask Veach to play ball. Veach will be more likely to do so with the knowledge that Beane has played ball with him and is likely to do so in the future.
