Keep in mind late 2016 hires are now the ones showing up to Indoc at Delta at the moment. You won't be cutting the line. And no you will not be flowing in 2 years. Plan on 6-7 years.

UA was doing the same thing with 9E pilots too. Of all the regional pilots in my class, like over half came from 9E. The class in front of me and the class behind me was the same story.
It was kinda funny.
