Look at it this way:
With Urschel/Yanda, you have an average RG / average RT combo.
With Yanda/Hurst, you have an elite RG / below average RT.
It's an obvious trade-off. Better pass protection with option A; better run blocking with option B.
I would take option B. Outside of Chandler Jones NE doesn't have a legit pass rusher anyway, and Jamie Collins will blitz A-Gap if he blitzes. I think our running game is gonna' be more important, and it will need more help IMO than the pass. Flacco, SSS, Torrey and OD are all savvy vets that will, between them, be able to get open. If Wilfork and co. shut Forsett down, we play into BB's coverages and Revis will eat us alive (they're nickel corner and safety aren't bad).
Flacco is mobile enough that he can mask a sub-par RT. The bootlegs and stretch plays will help, too.
