Best DL was able to do was overnight in JFK and overnight in SLC - no thanks.

They did say I could do SFO-ZRH and back with no overnights in Y for 250,000 miles even though that is way over what the chart says.
Remember that anything under 24 hours is a connection on international, so if you can find PRG-CDG the day before, getting in before the flight to SLC leaves, you can get that all on one ticket and overnight in Paris.

The mileage amounts you're throwing around are insane. This should be a 60K trip in Y, and 100K in J at low, so to pay over 100K for Y is bonkers. If you're considering paying 150K+ for Y, find the cash to buy the $1400 ticket instead of wasting your miles.
