Two reasons:

1) Taunt is instant -- to attempt to get the mob off the caster instantly, and you can still have your 2-second cast time Grasping Roots or your 2.5-second cast time Ensnaring Roots incoming to get the mob off you. 2 seconds is a long time for a cloth-wearer.

2) If it's an enchanter, and you see them casting mez with a mob beating on them, use Taunt first to get the mob off them, because if they channel the mez through the attack, the damage component of your root is going to break their mez.
