5 R, 5 D, 1 T (Depending on how you rate the VA Beach district)

This map would be a good compromise under an R court, but I don't think it will work on the 2020 population numbers, as the growth in the state has been so uneven. The SW seat needs to expand and the Nova seats will need to contract. Also, as a parochial concern, the Western VA delegates really don't like splitting up the Valley. I think a more realistic plan would be to keep the Valley whole and then give Charlottesville/Albemarle to the green district, which will have the benefit of making another competitive district and better reflect the partisan balance of the state. Actually, if you made that change I think that would probably be as good an example of a fair map as you could make.
