Most, if not all of us, thought there were too many question marks surrounding his motivation (or lack thereof).

Calais was selected in Round 2 with the 50th pick of the draft. For the record, the Jags ended up trading their #26 pick and two 2nd round picks to move up to #8 for Derrick Harvey and then traded up in the 2nd round to pick #54 to select Quentin Groves with the pick #54.

Wow .... if we had just taken Calais with the #26 pick and kept both 2nd round picks life would have been a little different here in Jacksonville.

This was the move that led to the downfall of the Jaguars franchise. Shack was horrible drafting in round one. The only pick he got right was Marcedes, but he was easily the pick at the spot making the pick a no brainer. At least Shack would typically redeem himself with a blockbuster pick in round two, but the trade up for Harvey was so bad he was fired the following offseason. What makes this move far more tragic is that it led to the team promoting Gene Smith to general manager, one of the single worst mistakes in NFL history. Gene Smith's drafts kept setting us more back every season. In retrospect, he destroyed the franchise.
