I agree with this, but I will also admit that I am not exactly sure how it works when a guy is released to waivers...or cut. I believe there is a pecking order, and if so...that would explain why a team might trade rather than just wait. Even if there isn't a pecking order...you still would have to be pretty alert to grab the player before someone else.

Anyone who can clear this up for me?
