Here's my guesses of metros somewhat in order:
Dallas
Atlanta
DC
Nashville
Raleigh
Austin
Boston
Denver
Houston
I'm not sure how anyone else can compete.
I'm basing this on diversity of location compared to current HQ, proximity to current or potential new AWS regions, internet backbones, universities to feed from, current populations, and of course taxes, and likelihood that governments will give subsidies.

I mean Raleigh may not even be the best option in its own state (Charlotte) so you need to think a little harder.
