What are you Cisco SP account team suggesting? I can't speak on the C2851 replacement side of things or the 760x, but I can offer something small on 1k's as border\transit routers.
Price doesn't seem to be hugely different between the ESPs 10/20/40. If your looking at multi-gig - at assume sub-rate 10GigE? - 9001's are worth a good look at. The 9000v virtual blade thingy is a pretty cool 48x1GigE bolt on. This document is a little old now (Feb 2012) yet it's an interesting BGP update\read on the 7200 and 1K platforms http://www.ciscoknowledgenetwork.com/files/195_Webinar_v4_.pdf?utm_source=&utm_medium=&utm_campaign=&PRIORITY_CODE= Good luck.
