Either smaller mat or let it hang off the back of the back bag a bit.

I’m tying it just where it lies on your pic, but perpendicular

Bigger bar bag? Smaller mat?

I always cut a significant amount off the width and several sections in length off those mats. You don’t need the full size and it’s so much easier to pack.

Front rack? Small one or even a “Jack the bike rack”?

Wear it as a hat.

I’d strap the mat to the top of the rack and find a pannier for the sleeping bag.

Cut two or three sections off, fold open one time so it’s wider and shorter, and place between dry bag and rear rack

Inflatable mat is the move

Does it fit under the sleeping bag and the saddle? Then strap the sleeping bag over it. A bit shifted to the back though to leave some space.

I would put the mat under the bag on the rack.

Where the sleeping bag is, and then put the sleeping bag on top, and tie them down together?

Put the sleeping bag and mat sideways on your rear rack, here’s an example
Just move it back, It’s light so packing it at the top is fine, it’s stiff so letting it hang over the back is fine. Two elastic cords and you are done. ( if you choke the matt ( wrap around ) with the elastic it will not “roll off” )
Good luck !

I keep mine on an anything cage on the fork
Edit: oh sorry didn’t register what type of mat you’ve got, I use an inflatable

Strap to your front bag.
