Don't let Dunbar come out of the game. I don't care if he's injured. He's better with one leg/one arm.

6. G DAMIEN LEWIS, SEATTLE SEAHAWKS
Lewis went back to his old ways in Week 5; he once again gave us a subpar performance in pass protection but impacted the run game. He had a couple of ugly losses when trying to keep Russell Wilson free from pressure en route to a 61.4 pass-block grade for the game. This takes his single-season pass-block grade to 52.9, 54th of 71 qualifying guards. However, Lewis posted his third single game run-blocking grade above 80.0, bringing his season grade in that facet to 87.8 — the fifth-best at the position and over nine grading points higher than sixth. Overall, Lewis ranks ninth in negatively graded run block rate and third in positively graded run block rate
Falcons, Ravens and Seahawks complete a three-way trade
Seattle Seahawks get: C Alex Mack, DE Takkarist McKinley (from Falcons)
Atlanta Falcons get: C B.J. Finney, 2021 sixth-round pick (from Seahawks), 2021 seventh-round pick (from Ravens)
Baltimore Ravens get: TE Jacob Hollister
Always good to mix a three-team trade into the picture. The 0-5 Falcons are out of the playoff picture, and while they're not going to rebuild, I don't think either Mack or McKinley figure into their future. Mack is 34 and in the final year of a five-year, $45 million deal, while McKinley is in the last year of his rookie deal after having his fifth-year option declined. The cap-strapped Falcons will likely be moving on from both Mack and McKinley after the season, giving them some motivation to make a move now.
The Seahawks, on the other hand, are candidates for the top spot in the NFC after starting 5-0. Ethan Pocic has impressed at center after an inconsistent start to his career, but Mack would give the Seahawks a top-tier pivot as they try to win a Super Bowl. Pocic would move back into a utility lineman role, and the Seahawks would move on from Finney, who didn't impress in camp after signing as a free agent and hasn't played an offensive snap so far this season. Finney would be a low-cost option for the Falcons at center in 2020.

Seattle badly needs bodies along the defensive line; McKinley has struggled with a groin injury this season, but he racked up a sack and six knockdowns of Russell Wilson during the opening-week loss to these very Seahawks. We're not likely to see a star edge rusher come available at the trade deadline, so the Seahawks will probably look to add multiple players up front and try to win with depth.
For the Seahawks, moving on from Hollister is more about cap space than anything else, given that the 2019 contributor has played just 48 offensive snaps this season and has a cap hold of $3.3 million. The Ravens have disappointed a bit on offense this season, and while trading away Hayden Hurst probably wasn't the difference between what we've seen in 2020 and what we saw in 2019, they are down to two tight ends in Mark Andrews and Nick Boyle. Hollister would fill the Hurst role from a year ago and give Baltimore some insurance if Andrews gets banged up in an expanded role. Baltimore would need to free up some short-term cap space to get the deal done.

Not a fan tbh.
McKinley is just a guy. 1st Round bust. Nothing special. Pocic has actually graded out better than Mack. Then you take age into the equation. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
Hollister is a playmaker. No reason to dump him & his salary. Maybe if they got a bonafide pass rusher. Otherwise pass.
