NFL Advanced Statistics Project

This will hone my data engineering skills while exploring some of my greatest passions in life - the NFL, fantasy football, and advanced metrics.

More coming soon...

Anticipated Requirements

• DBeaver or another database manager of your choice
• A local PostgreSQL installation
• Python
• SQLAlchemy Python package for SQL connection to PostgreSQL database, Pandas for data manipulation

Run Instructions

• You will need to load the CSVs into SQL tables
