The Green Bay Packers 2020 NFL Draft class is certainly one that will be remembered for a long time. However, it will not be remembered for the high number of quality players that the team selected that year. Instead, it will be recalled by many as the year that Green Bay traded up in the first round to select Jordan Love as the heir to Aaron Rodgers as the Packers franchise quarterback.
Unfortunately for Green Bay, the rest of the class was rather lackluster. Love is the only player from that class still playing for the Packers. Four of the nine players they selected are not even on an active NFL roster anymore: Kamal Martin, Simon Stepaniak, Vernon Scott, and Jonathan Garvin.

The five players that do still play on NFL rosters are Love, AJ Dillon (Eagles), Jon Runyan Jr. (Giants), Jake Hanson (free agent, but recently with the Jets), and tight end Josiah Deguara.
In 2024, Deguara spent the season with the Jacksonville Jaguars after four unspectacular years with the Packers. He appeared in 15 games, but caught just three passes for 14 yards.
On Monday, it was reported that he has found a new home: the Arizona Cardinals:

In four seasons with Green Bay, Deguara had 50 receptions for 450 yards and two touchdowns. His best season came in 2021 when he had 25 receptions for 245 yards and both of his career touchdowns.
Over the years, the former third round pick (94th overall) has become a valuable special teams player. Last season with Jacksonville, he played a career-high 62% of the special teams snaps. In 2023, his final season with the Packers, he played 57%.
It is likely that he will have a similar role with the Cardinals.
