NFL Combine Table

I was playing around with different table packages in R like reactable and put together a little something that displays some basic NFL combine metrics from Wide Receivers over the past two drafts. This isn't even the nicest looking table but I'm having fun tinkering with new tools.

Side note: as a Michigan fan, it pains me to see three Ohio State WR's drafted in the first round over the past two years but I take solace in the fact that in spite of the outstanding talent they have had at the position, Michigan has beaten them in both games over that same period ;)

Also, when did top picks start not participating in the "important" combine measurements like 40, vertical jump etc? Is the combine becoming less about player eval and more something else? I really shouldn't publish thoughts out loud...

Edit: The Michigan Wolverines are now National Champions of the 2023-2024 college football season and we beat Ohio State for the third time in a row. I had the chance to attend the game with my dad for my first ever experience at The Big House. Go Blue!
