If you are the stock owner, you would want to buy a put option, as insurance against price depreciation! What this put buying does is give you the opportunity to make money on the option trade itself by buying with plenty of time before expiration and letting you make a profit with the increased value of the put, as the stock price falls!
You just explained that beautifully and now I understand.
