It's worth commenting in a thread like this that some people will say there isn't any way for 11 draft picks to make the team.
I counter that thought process with the fact there are at least a handful of depth players that haven't shown much and could technically be upgraded. It might not come via a draft pick, but we shouldn't rule out the possibility.
Depth players that could be upgraded:
Marquis Flowers
PJ Dawson
Alex Erickson (at least as a WR)
Cody Core (due to lack of ST value)
Cedric Peerman (not good outside of ST)
DeShawn Williams
Marcus Hardison (last shot to try and make roster, must stay healthy)
Pat Sims
TJ Johnson
Ryan Hewitt (value is dropping due to less usage)
Clayton Fedejelem (very limited usage, wasn't great in limited defensive reps)
Derron Smith (had issues staying healthy, hasn't shown much when healthy)
Brandon Thompson

Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
