Default Commuting from SMF, where to work???

Hi guys... Looking for advise....

Recently, I got turned down by SKW, so now it is guaranteed that I will have to commute, at least to Midwest or even farther...

I do have a confirmed job offer from GoJet and interviews lined up from PSA, Air Whisky & C5

I don't want to go to any turbo-prop operators, I basically want a 121, Jet, glass, more than 30 ton, preferably a United Express carrier.

Based on what i have read over the last few years, I have tried to make a snapshot of the industry and tried to narrow my options but the more I look at it, I don't see many options..

SKW: Refused me..
Compass: wants 121 time...
Air Whisky: Good company, but 50 seaters have an uncertain future plus CR200 is less than 30 ton.
XJT: Good company but Not profitable, could be sold, they also have a lot of 50 seaters, therefore has uncertain future...
American Eagle: Losing airplanes, uncertain future...
Republic...????
Mesa: horrible working conditions, sub par pay...
PSA: I don't know much about the company except that they took some pay cuts that didn't need to...

Did I miss any one???

So, what do you guys think, What company / base combination would work best from SMF ?

Thanks in advance...
