I am considering buying a poly suit for durability. It is my understanding that poly is thicker than nylon/lycra therefore creating more drag. In the jammer style suit would there be enough additional drag that I should consider poly briefs and stay away from poly jammers? Is the additional drag insignificant and I should not worry about it?

I have a polyester suit for practice (as a female). The biggest difference I noticed is that the fabric is not quite as stretchy. Make sure you try on a suit before you buy, because the fit can be different. If you're just wearing it for practice, the extra drag is pretty insignificant, but I would recommend getting a lycra suit for meets.
