wppete Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 This guys has fallen out of the 1st round in a lot of mocks because of a poor showing at the combine but if he is there at #40 I hope we take him. He is a stud, super high motor, great rushing technique and moves. Plays fast, didn’t have a good 40 at the combine, 4.8. But If we draft Ed Oliver at #9 and then get Polite at #40 we have really improved our pass rush next year. 2 studs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWATeam Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Really fast off the edge, but I don't see him fitting the scheme. He's a 3-4 OLB, IMO 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillsGospel Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 I don't think he'll last to the 2nd round, I don't want to say not a chance but pass rushers are a premium so if he made it past 20 picks I'd be surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and he's really flexible and bendy around the corner. I just don't think I ever really saw him with his hand in the dirt. I don't really see a fit, but who knows, getting to the QB is certainly at a premium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 No thanks. I wouldn’t take Pollite or Rashan Gary in. Rd 1 or 2. 2 hours ago, wppete said: I see that you are saying.

gonzo1105 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 He’s not falling solely because his combine numbers weren’t good. There are a ton of rumors he has character concerns and was the worst interview of all prospects at the combine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read an article where he was given advice at Florida to stay another year. They wanted him to consider the defensive depth in this year's draft, and they felt another year could help him better develop his game. He would not listen. They also tried to prep him for what he would face in the combine, but that did not seem to stick either. He just did not do himself any favors and came off as a bit of a slow-blinker. Some team will pick him up as he has flashed the raw potential, but he is a project in regards to his coachability and poor habits. https://ftw.usatoday.com/2019/03/jachai-polite-combine-40-time-interviews 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddyjj Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) Biggest audition of his life and he showed up out of shape, overweight and surly. Several clubs said worst interview ever at Combine. Not a prayer he becomes a Bill. Edited March 24, 2019 by freddyjj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After reading that I don’t think Polite is a McDermott guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Depends who they take in rd 1. If they go Sweat or Burns I dont think Polite makes that much sense. I really think Buffalo needs to add more weapons on offense. Zay Jones, Robert Foster, Jon Brown, and Cole Beasly are role players. They need to add something more. If they dont go pass catcher in rd 1 I'm out on polite. If they go Hockenson or Metcalf I would be all for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddo Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Based on the article linked, Polite probably shouldn't be selected until about the 5th round, as it sounds like it'll take him all of his first contract years, to figure out how to be a pro. A good DC will get some production out of him in the meantime, especially on obvious passing plays, but you wouldn't want to bet the farm that the guy understands what it means to be a professional in the NFL, before about his third year - and he seems so uncommitted, that it may not even be then. This has 'dumb kid wastes talent' written all over it, as a highly possible outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
