Fantasy Values

The Fantasy Footballers are a popular podcast with a very large following of loyal listeners. They release an annual draft ranking, but keep their values for the draft a secret which can be revealed only through their purchasable draft kit. Using SQL and R, I intended to find the values from their free rankings compared to the ADP of ESPN and Sleeper, two of the most popular fantasy football platforms.
