If you want CO miles, go for the Sapphire Preferred, as it offers a 7% annual bonus, effectively giving you 1.07 miles per dollar spent.

Although if you get the OnePass Plus card do spend 25K in a year you'll get 35K CO miles, a 40% spending bonus. 
Plus free bags, free primary CDW insurance, etc, etc.

Go for all 3 for the signup bonuses and see which you like :)
