Good question. Why did the Redskins trade for Brunell when the Jags were clearly going to cut him? Why did the Dolphins trade for Harrington? Why did the Jets trade for Ramsey? Why did the Bears trade for Arch? Obstensibly the reason is to get the player on the team and learning the plays long before training camp rolls around. But there must be more to it than just that.
