Most of the people on property that want the 75 are on the 2 year equipment lock or can already hold CA on a different plane (over 300 hired in the last 2 yrs). If you have the flexibility to do that and don't mind going through a couple 2-3 month long training events then it would be a good option. It has rarely gone senior in a new hire class, mostly because people come here with a particular base in mind and if that just happens to be Vegas you can move up the FO list much faster on the MD80.
