He has bad friends with bad intentions. This usually happens near the beginning of any relationship. And men and women do it.
So let's set up a hypothetical.
Your single, you have a crush on a guy you see pretty often. You never act on it though because you aren't sure if they are single or if they would even like you back so you play a waiting game hoping they will talk to you first. (Men do this too by the way there's nothing wronf with a lady making the first move)
But then your crush enters a relationship. Your a little angry and a little jealous. You missed your chance and it bugs you. One day your thinking about it late at night losing sleep over it and you decide your gonna look him up on Facebook to see what this girlfriend he has is like. You see her and think "shit I'm prettier than she is" so you decide to add him, after all you know him and you've spoken to him you are friends after all so whats the harm. You don't admit it to yourself but you are basically giving an advertisement to him that reads "hey i like you and wouldn't mind having a chance of you ever get over this girl" you don't realize that's what you were trying to do, and he doesn't realize it either because it's sub conscience almost instinctual.
These guys are doing the same thing. Its a way of saying "I'm friends with your boyfriend, if you were ever mad at him, come fuck me, that would piss him off"
Its not a man or woman specific thing because it's happened to me and to my partners in the past and I didn't realize that was the tactic until one girl got brave and told me about the tactic.
Those dudes are either
A- adding you because he bragged about you to them and they simply would like to get to know you
Or
B- they are tossing their hat in the ring as a way of saying "consider me when you get tired of him"
Probably becazse they wanna get to know you. For guys social media is the easiest way to get in contact because one can do that without being seen by other people. They got interested in you by curiosity and probably wanna know what kind of woman has fallen in love with their friend.

They think you're hot. Be careful, they might want to be snakes in the grass.
Probably because Facebook is prompting them to add you because their algorithm tells them you are likely to accept.
