Any way to make the AI more involved in transactions like these?

I cannot give you a definite answer; perhaps another forum member will. I can only assure you that under the right conditions, trade offers and waiver activity flourishes.
Some circumstances inhibit them: 1) Your team being fully stocked (the game looks for your weaknesses and tries to trade you players that it thinks you need); 2) team finances (trading is squelched when too many teams are in the red); 3) number of quality free agents in the pool (teams are less likely to waive players if good alternatives are not available; 4) other situations that I am likely missing but, once a league is established and flourishing, clear up and allow roster transactions to flow.
