I have only one question; what on earth is your occupation to be making $104000 per year at age 23? If I were you I wouldn't be concerned about the measly cash back you'll receive from spending $1k per month. Sorry, I just had to ask.
Hi Joe
Plans for cards look good to me...what I would question is the time frame. Not sure what your present AAoA is with all the new cards already. Remember credit is a marathon and not a race.. it takes a lot of time 
What I would do is make sure you do all on-time payments, no further new inquiries ...let's say garden 6 mo better 12 mo and not apply for anything until you have an AAoA of over 1 year. With your salary you can easily apply a PIF strategy. Patiently garden and then proceed with your plan High scores also come from established accounts not only low utilization due high limits. Patience, patience, patience is the main key to credit success..lol

My present AAoA with all these accounts will be about 2 months. In January 2015 when I want to apply again for 3 more it will be 8 months. I know US Bank Cash+ is a tricky one to get, but I'm hoping utilizing their checking account well will help me get it. I just don't want to keep a huge amount in there and lose out on the investment value of that money for the sake of the card, so I'm not going to try and do the 25K for 6 months thing there. But with the high direct deposit and 5K average daily balance, I feel I should be pretty good.
What is "PIF strategy?" Pay in full? If so then yes, that's what the plan is. No point paying interest to try and chase cards, any benefit I get from the new cards I'd end up killing by paying interest.
Yes PIF is Pay In Full and by this I mean just pay before the due date and absolutely no late payments. With 8 months AAoA in January 15 I would postpone my next app spree to June 15 but that is only me. I like not only approvals but close to best terms....so far managed to never get a denial with my system...all inquiries were always successful but I know there will be a day that I will receive my first credit denial...it is just a matter of time 
It is often possible to obtain 2 of the same type of card. So that should factor into your future plans. 2 cash+ would allow you to solve Restaurants/Fast Food, as well as Electronics stores and another category. 2 Sallie Mae rewards mastercards should handle most Grocery/Gas/Book Store.
Amazon.com is a Book Store. So Sallie Mae Rewards Mastercards, and US Bank Cash+ with Book Stores selected, are good choices.
Consider working towards 2 Bank of America Better Balance Rewards cards. If used properly, getting $25 cash back every 3 months can be significant, since you control the spending on the card. Lower spending means higher cash back percentage. Just don't try to spend so little that you are sure to annoy the company.
At this point, you should be using the Amex BCP well, perhaps 20% or so per month and paying in full. You want to request a 3X credit limit at 2 months and 8 months. getting one high limit card will help toward future credit limits and limit increase requests. Amex uses previous month soft pulls on your credit report, so try to optimise your FICO score for the first 8 months (it can't hurt).
Your FICO scores need time to recover. And your credit reports need time to age, ie, time for the existing cards to build a pattern of responsible use.
Credit Karma/Credit Sesame scores are truely useless. And any advice they give you is also worthless. TRUELY worthless. Use them to see when Hard Inquiries and new credit cards appear on your reports, and thats about all. make sure you use the Discover It so that it will generate a monthly statements, as the Transunion score from Discover does have meaning.
For Walmart, you can use the Huntington Bank Voice card for 3% cash back, if you are in their business area. I don't know if they wil allow 2 identical cash back cards.

If you have lots of real small purchases each month, consider geting a Citizens Bank (or Charter One Bank) Green$ense card.
Cash+ has Cell Phone category. Also Furniture Store category. It all depends on how much you spend in these categories as to which you should select each quarter.
The annual fee on the Amex BCP reduces the real amount of cash back you are getting. Its important to do the math:
Here is a nice list of cash back categories you might want to consider: http://frequentmiler.boardingarea.com/2012/11/09/best-category-bonuses/
What do you mean when you say "V2 Sigs" ?
Consider your spending pattern when deciding what cards are best. As mentioned earlier, BCP can barely hit 4.75% cash back on Grocery due to earning caps and annual fee, and only when you spend exactly $6000 a year at grocery stores. having multiple 5% cash back cards with no annual fees is usually the best way to go.
But I did say we should do the math, so:
