A321 pays a hair less than 7ER, is continually growing, and in every base bad Seattle. If you don’t want one of the four corners, ER doesn’t do you much good. 73N also does some nice flying, transcons and islands, so you can get your fill there and again, historically be more senior. Other downside of ER is for newhires, you’re on training pay until done with TOE.
