Dogs eat underwear because it smells like the human that they live with. This is also the reason that dogs eat remote controls, eyeglasses and cell phones. Humans deposit more skin cells, and therefore scent, into these items than any other.

Because they are new to the new smell and possibly the sweat inside it,and thus think this said sweat may be water.Thus,they drink it.
It can also mean that there is a behavioral issue,but I'm not able to be all that certain that that could be a possibility.

Dogs who chew up your stuff are usually bored. Dogs need a lot of exercise, and if they are not walked at least one hour every day, they act up. Also, dogs are pack animals. They feel uncomfortable if they do not know exactly where their place in the pack is, and if you are not clearly the leader, the dog may be trying to show you who is boss. I reccommend that you start exercising the dog a lot more, and also making it very clear that you are the alpha dog.

because they like the taste, dogs are always experimenting with new things and chewing underwear just happens to be one of those "experimental" things they like to do
