@Chi-townBrickie it unfortunately looks like you're going to have to play the sit and wait game. You're looking at 3/24 right now. My guess, and I'm sure someone wiser than I will correct me, is that you'll need to hang on for the a few months and then possibly do a Freedom app. Then at 4/24 sit and wait for a few, or more, months until you're pre-app'ed with via Chase online.
If it was me wanting in with Chase I'd probably wait for a pre-app for the Freedom as well. That said there are good reports of having luck with cold app'ing for the Freedom. You've got decent scores but your history is biting you. Whatever you do, don't break 4/24 or you'll be in my boat waiting for 2019 to roll around.
You should be able to request a SP CLI form Cap1 by now and I'd take that just to bolster your total CL and offset the heavy Venture limit.
Reports I've read indicate that Disco needs at least 6-7 months to graduate, but there's a few threads that give better details on that. I'd play the CLI game with them too once you can.
If you do get in with Chase, I would push as much of my monthly spend to that card as I could just to show them how much you love them.
I'm a credit neophyte myself so stand by for sage advice from the guru's

I’m highly interested in the CSR Card, but have yet to receive any prequals from Chase. I do have prequals from Citi, Cap1, US Bank, and Amex. I’m holding off app’ing anywhere else so i won't reach Chase's 5/24 rule.
My revolving credit profile is still young, and I’m not sure how much it needs to age first?
I’d even temporarily open a chase checking or savings account if that will help?
Do I need to start off with a freedom card first?
All advice is highly appreciated!

1. Yes open a savings and/or checking account with Chase
2. When you go online, there's an "offers" section. If you have a green checkmark for credit cards there, you'll find out what Chase cards you're prequalified for.
3. You can also check at the branch for prequalifications.
Best not to apply for new cards now, just build an even better record with the cards you have.
I think within 6 months you should be able to get the CSR.
