We've passed the midway point of the season. How are you guys doing so far?
In my four leagues, I'm doing well in two and doing absolutely shitty in the other two.
In my SuperFlex league that I am the commissioner in (the most important league for me), I'm currently ranked #1 with a record of 5-2 (only ahead of the #2 team by 4 points). It appears that Lamar is once again the league winner. After several more trades and free agency pickups, this is what I have:
QB: L.Jackson
RB: K.Walker, J.Taylor
WR: M.Nabers, MHJ
TE: B.Bowers
Flex: K.Hunt
SFlex: K.Murray
Bench: G.Minshew, D.Singletary, T.Tracy, Z.Charbonnet, T.Goodson, R.Odunze, N.Collins (IR), J.Smith-Schuster (IR)
I'm waiting for N.Collins to come back from IR, which will give me back a legit WR1 again.
My biggest issue (which may end up not even mattering) is that our playoffs starts on Week 14 (our championship matchup is two weeks long, so we have to start a week early), and I have several players (L.Jackson, J.Taylor, N.Collins) on a Bye. So if I do have to play in Round 1, I'll be hurting. However, if I stay #1 or 2, it becomes moot.
My big $ league started 0-2 and righted the ship. I lost Mixon those few weeks, got him back, I got Garrett Wilson, WanDale, Jayden Reed at WR... Not good, I'm hoping Puka gets back, I just got Bateman after someone dropped him Friday. Kittle at TE, makes a big difference getting double digits weekly from a TE rather than streaming.
Now Josh Allen at QB has been a rollercoaster...
I have Tyreek Hill, Rashee Rice, Deebo Samuel, the TE I drafted was Njoku, but dropped him, started out 3 - 0, now 3-4.
My team, on paper, isn't bad, but I'm still stuck with 3 QB's in a 1 QB league. I had Jordan Love and started him opening week, when he was injured I traded Jayden Reed for Josh Allen. So I'm stuck with Allen, Love and Kyler Murray who was an 8th round keeper.
My team is:
QB: Allen, Love, Murray
RB: Cook, Conner, Singletary, Brown, Tracey
TE: Kmet, Parkinson (dropping Parkinson)
K: Koo
D: Jets (I lost by less than a point this week b/c the supposed #1 D in the league let up 37 to one of the worst offenses. and I got a -1 - even with the zeroes from Tyreek and Deebo).
Tyreek, Deebo, Pickens, Legette
We originally had 4 team playoffs with the championship being two weeks. However, after the first two seasons, the league wanted to expend the playoffs to 6 teams while still keeping the championship as two weeks long, which meant we start our playoffs a week earlier than normal since we're not going to play the final week of the season. The league has gotten used to it and is ok with the Week 14 Bye for Seeds 3-6 (with Seeds #5 and 6 being total points based regardless of records).
It actually makes trades a bit more interesting since those fighting for playoff spots have to take the Bye week into account (trade deadline is Week 10) when making last minute trades.
Tyreek, Deebo, Pickens, Legette
Hopefully, your WR situation will get better with Tua coming back, Deebo having less target competition, and Wilson being a better passer.
I have Tyreek as well in a league that I've lost some close ones.

Deebo got me a zero last week too. he had pneumonia they decided not to tell anyone about. if I had known I didn't have many options, but I could have started Legette and I would have won.
It clears a QB for me.

I'm a huge Allen fan, so I would rather move one of your other two; however, if you can get Mixon out of the deal, why not? He's been a monster since coming back from his injury.

outlined above would you trade Josh Allen for Joe Mixon (PPR)?

I could offer Kyler Murray - in which case I'd need to sweeten it, or Jordan Love, but I have a feeling Love may be QB1 in FF by the end of the season or just behind Lamar. On a ppg basis. Love missed two games.
