Does that mean they actually liked him better all along but thought he would not be claimed and the other two would?  Did they change their mind over night?  Did they end up with their 3rd choice out of these WRs?  
Just doesn’t make much sense to me how this all played out.

Maybe it's more a matter of what they do/contribute as a WR? I don't know a ton about Irwin/Thomas/Taylor strengths and whatnot, but maybe Irwin and Thomas filled a role and Taylor filled a different role? Then they saw/heard about the availability of guys who do what Irwin and Thomas do, but better?

It could also be about potential. Irwin and Thomas might be a hair better than Taylor now, but they could think Taylor has a brighter future than either. So keep the guys who can help best now and stash the other for another year.

It could also be about Special Teams. Maybe Taylor isn't a good ST guy and Irwin/Thomas are?

I have no idea the actual reasoning, but those are 3 possibilities.
