# Get ESPN ADP
ESPN.ADP <- "http://games.espn.go.com/flb/livedraftresults"
ADP <- readHTMLTable(ESPN.ADP)
ADP <- as.data.frame(ADP[2])

colnames(ADP) <-
  c("Rank","Name","Position","AVGPick","7DayROC","AvgValue","7DayAvgROC","Owned")
# Remove Team Names from Player Name
ADP$Name <- gsub("\\,.*","",ADP$Name)
ADP.df <- sqldf('select Rank as RotoADP, Name
                from ADP p where Name is not null')

generally, having ADP in the package would be great! they provide a great sanity check for top-down valuation approaches, among other benefits
