I've acknowledged he dropped his trade stock by his behavior. But it's also possible to recognize that behavior didn't have to happen if some fans didn't treat him like shit.
But to more directly answer your question, given peters' connection to Oakland, more than possible that teams didn't want to trade for a guy they knew they'd never be able to keep. As I've said before only two teams negotiated for Alex Smith, that doesn't mean there weren't plenty of teams interested.
