Because they're ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED that the only other guy they have on the roster isn't good enough.
It's really very simple.
Brodie Croyle can't stay healthy.
Tyler Thigpen can't hit the broad side of a barn.
Damon Huard can't stay off his back.
Matthew Stafford was out of reach.
They obviously evaluated Sanchez and didn't want him.
So now they're back to Tyler Thigpen.
They traded a 2nd-round pick for a guy that they obviously believe CAN be a franchise QB, and they're out NOTHING if he isn't.
The world isn't black and white, sorry.
