4 players who need outstanding Pro Days to revive their 2019 NFL draft stock

Jachai Polite | EDGE | Florida

No player may have had a worse NFL combine experience than Polite, who from all accounts absolutely bombed the entire process. His time at the podium was deemed by those in attendance as embarrassing and his times on the stopwatch were just as excruciating.

Polite weighed in at 6-3 and 258 pounds, a weight that’s markedly higher than he looked on tape last season. His weight gain was intentional, and he can’t be faulted for trying to bulk up considering the requirements of his position on the next level. But it wasn’t good weight. He was slow; he was sluggish; he didn’t show any of his trademark explosion.

Polite ran a 4.84 40-yard dash and managed just 32 inches on his vertical jump. He failed, miserably, and needs to shed some weight in order to time better at his Pro Day. He began his draft journey as a potential mid-first-round pick but has since been on a steady decline and looks more like a mid-Day-2 prospect now.
