This is in regard to your draftnick post, but I wanted to make sure you see it.

I subscribe to The Sporting New's War Room. They way they lay things out, I can pretty easily copy and paste into Excel. Some of the formatting gets funny (like height, which Excel tries to convert to date, and I can't convert it back, and it sets up a bunch of hypelinks you might not want).

If you like, I can send you an Excel file with the Top 99 prospects. And you can see if it would work for what you had in mind. If that is easy enough for you to work with, I could do it for all the positions pretty quickly.

On the good side, TSN shows all the complete stats (including all of the shuttles and the Wonderlic).

On the bad side, their ranking and their text about players is often a bit off.

I already have things like height and weight. As far as formatting hyperlinks, they won't be uploaded to the database, so no worries there (I found that out when I did the same thing on a spreadsheet with hyperlinks). Go ahead and give it a shot if you want to, and I'll see what I can do with it.

Where do you want me to send it (or how do I attach a file here)?

I think I figured it out. Had to zip it.
