A place to store data about historical NFL draft classes

The lion's share of the credit for this data goes to Pro Football Reference Draft History, though I've made some formatting changes as well as included some information from nflverse

The current method of compiling this data uses a Microsoft polyglot notebook. Most of the work is being done with Microsoft.Data.Analysis using the Microsoft version of a DataFrame.

There is some old information in an old-data folder. In there, the SchoolNameCleaning.json file contains instructions for cleaning and converting the PFR CSV files using OpenRefine. There is also a text file with a csvkit command that can be used to join data.
