all DL CR7s and CR9s (regardless of affiliate operator) are A//B-C in F: the -700s have three rows (9 seats) whereas the CR9s have four rows (12 seats)
let's please keep these discussions on track: the discussion of the exit rows in Y, and bringing up the CR2s, is completely irrelevant to OP's question about overhead bins in F on CR9s

That said I don't know if I've ever paid attention to what the signs on the planes say. I know when I select my seat online it says A//C-D, and then I know where in the cabin my seat is when I board, but I've probably never actually looked at the signage in the cabin to compare it to my seat assignment.

If you insist on 1A and then fill the bin, you are " that guy"

It will fit. Now, you may draw suspecion from the GA who may strongly encourage you to attach a pink tag and leave it at the bottom of the stairs to be retreived there at the destination. I just take the pink tag and proceed on with my roller anyway. Fits. Now, depending on how much stuff you have packed and weather or not it expands, you may have to put it sideways and move one of the bags to first row of coach--to be polite.

you never took a CR9 to/from JFK? sometimes they actually used a real gate (I can think of maybe twice in probably two dozen flights over the last 3-4 years), but the vast majority of the time they parked at the T2 corral so everybody boarded and deplaned using the integral stair at the 1L door

For NYC trips, the only time I remember using JFK rather than LGA was when I did my GE interview there late on a Sunday afternoon.

Does Delta CRJ-200 and CRJ-700 have the same overhead bin space/measurements?
I have a carry on luggage 21x14x9 that fit at CRJ200 on my trip last year and wondering if it will fit the CRJ-700 too. I don't want to gate check because I have my dslr and PS3 console in it. My luggage would only be half full. Thanks!

Welcome to Flyertalk newbie1987.
As this is about a DL aircraft, we'll move this to the DL forum.

Carry on bags are not permitted to be brought into the cabin. Only personal items. For weight and balance purposes, they assume each passenger has an average passenger weight. On the CR2 it is a lower weight. Any carry on bags are accounted for separately and gate checked. On the CR7 and CR9 the average passenger weight is higher accounting for carry-on bags carried into the cabin.

Sorry about the confusion. This is what was written in my Itinerary last year, Delta 3695 Operated by ENDEAVOR AIR DBA DELTA CONNECTION so I assume the plane was CRJ200. It was really a small plane. I was asked by the FA to gate check my luggage but I told her I have my camera gear inside and she let me. It fit in the overhead bin, just have to put it the right way.
I don't mind to gate check my carry on and take out my stuffs but I only have 1hr 15min layover in DWT and I have a connecting flight to NRT.
So does anybody knows the measurements of the overhead bin of CRJ700? Will a 45 linear inch luggage fit? Thanks!

Not necessarily. In fact, I think the bin type and size depends on the particular DL Connection carrier. For example, the tiny bins on the A side of a CRJ-900 seem to be glued shut on SkyWest, while they're a good place for coats and small items on other CRJ-900s.
