Is the whole purpose of waiving a player before adding him to IR just to restructure his contract first? Could Chase have been added to IR without being exposed to waivers?

Smootsmack, speak up on this because I am sure you know the answer, but by resigning Minnifield just to put him on the IR means that the Skins will pay him something for the right to be first in line next year to have him on thier team?
