Not sure where you get this from. We did have a interest in Manning, and this was stated sometime ago from regular ES insiders. The options were....

Manning + later round drafted QB to groom
RGIII + quality vet
Tannehill + quality vet


These were all serious options for the Redskins. There was no "throwing darts" to it at all. All those teams you mentioned had serious interest in Manning, now whether Manning had serious interest in them is a different story.
