Dude needs his own thread because the more I watch him, the giddier I get.

Hard to find athletes this twitchy, loose and fluid in their movement at 250 lbs.

I'm not seeing nearly enough buzz on junior DE Jachai Polite (6'2 260) from Florida...

Elite pass rush tools/traits.. Handful of moves and impressive flexibility/burst to close.

I also love he had 4 tackles last season 20+yds downfield - straight hustling til the whistle!! pic.twitter.com/wE0S9JuAYS

Thinking the same exact thing, if the niners don't walk out of the upcoming draft with a potential pass rushing star I'd be shocked

Polite is top 3 edge in this class. His traits are ridiculous. Jumps off the screen. He's been kicking ass the entire game. Just smoked the left tackle with a disgusting spin move.

I think Jachai Polite has a very good chance to finish the year as EDGE2 and in this class that's pretty impressive

I just hope we don't end up outsmarting ourselves thinking there are so many great pass rushers in this class that we can get a great one on day 2 and pass on a sure thing in the first...

Bosa, Ferrell, Polite, Burns, Sweat, Allen, Jackson and a few others I'm forgetting...this could be like the 2011 class again. We need to make sure we find our next Aldon Smith...minus the self destruction.

Making a strong case for EDGE2.

Polite is sooo explosive and loose in his movement.

Looked like a monster against LSU today.
