Ok. I’m gonna slow it down. In this scenario, he’s not signing any contract at all until later on in the summer.

If they place the tag on him before the start of the new league year but he doesn’t sign it, then Ridley still doesn’t sign any contract at all until after the draft…. What happens?

Placing the tag on him does not mean that they signed him to a contract.

I never said placing the tag signs him to a contract. That's why I said it requires him to sign it. But with the tag being around $21 million for a WR are we really sure he won't sign it?

The smartest play is to just let him hit FA and if we want him we compete for him.

Not if Ridley doesnt sign it before the new league year starts.  That has at least been reported

Correct, it requires Ridley to sign it. But I'm not sure he's going to walk away from $21 million especially since his market value is projected to be around $17 million.
