Default To VSP or not to VSP?

I just found out my year group is eligible for the VSP and they are trying to reduce a total of 77 of us by 26 so considering I have not started my Masters and was very late to complete SOS in-correspondence I believe I will be a prime target for the RIF should they not find 26 of us that are interested in taking the VSP.

With that said I am trying to gauge my job prospects on the outside. I am a former FAIP so the majority of my time is TPIC, but I don't have a lot of total time yet. I am putting an application in at my hometown Reserve unit and if accepted then I will definitely put in for the VSP, but based on my numbers below how do I look for getting an airline job? I know I won't be competitive for Delta or Southwest, but I also would rather not take a 75% paycut to go fly for a regional either. How competitive will I be at companies like JetBlue? Thoughts...

Pre-Conversion Numbers and I also should be able to increase all of those numbers by about 200 or so before I get out:

Total Time: 1622
Total Turbine: 1415
Total Turbine PIC: 1210
