Out of those I'd say the 7' Falcon Lowrider LFS-6-17 7 foot Medium looks pretty good.
I've heard good things about the Lamiglas Excels and Dobyns Savvys for their price too.
If you're not worried about spinning a little more, perhaps take a look at the 7' Med Heavy St. Croix Avid. Can't really go wrong with the Avid.

I have the Falcon 6'10" medium "shakey head special". This has been a great rod for everything finesse from shakey heads to wacky rigging and even drop shotting. I'm almost positive Marshall owns this rod as well if you wanted to take a look at it.
Another rod close to the prices of those you have listed is the Shimano crucial line. They have a 7ft medium w/ fast action as well.

I'd also suggest looking at Fenwick rods personally I just bought a 7' medium HMG and really like it that right now that works pretty good for texas rigs, but I didn't buy it just for bass. They have quite a few options to choose from and we get 30% off so I'd at least look into it if i were you

Uros I think you need a Med/Hvy Rod, you have a medium action already. So go with a 7' Med/Hvy rod. The Abu Garcia Veritas has one, the Falcon BuCoo 7' Med/Hvy is a great rod too. And YOu can't go wrong with a Carrot Stix.

If you're still thinking about getting a rod, I do have a Quantum Superlight 7'4" MH Fast Action. It's got a lot of backbone and can generate a lot of power.
They're selling on ebay for around 90 , so I suppose I can let mine go for 50. I hardly ever use it because it's too long for me, since I have short arms. You're a lot taller, so I think it might be the right length for you.
