As far as bates go, the tag was the best, and most logical, decision. He clearly was the best defensive player (maybe best on the team) in the playoffs. You can’t just bank on letting him walk and using that money “somewhere else”. I understand his struggles in the regular season, but I think kicking the can down the road a year was a great decision.
I proposed using that money specifically on a RG which you’ve been whining about.
You’ve menstruated about how unimportant WR3 is, but inexplicably want to use a high draft pick to fill what you consider is an unimportant position flying in the face of all your logic banking on using that money somewhere else which you just complained about.

But seriously, my very first comment in this thread suggested signing an offensive lineman to protect the QB so he could throw it downfield. And I never argued against being able to rush the passer. Which I have reiterated at least three times for you if not more.
You’re making shit up just to argue.
