You're assuming someone made an offer above the price of a plane ticket.
Logically it was clear to everyone in the NFL the Bengals were drafting a QB, and thus it follows would not need Dalton especially with his 17 mil$ salary. Thus it doesn't take a genius to understand, they were never keeping Dalton, so why trade for him?
From Dalton's perspective, this is the best outcome. Now he gets to choose where he wants to go, and which situation would be best for him.
His trade value was ALWAYS a nickel and a dime before the draft, and a penny afterward.
