The OP wants a lens for his D7200, a DX camera. With either the 24-120 or 28-300, both FX lenses, he would have a not very wide 36 or 42 mm equivalent at the low end. The Nikon 18-140 3.5 5.6 DX got excellent reviews, and would provide a very useful range for not a great deal of money.
The sweet walk-around lens for my D7500 is the Nikon 18-140 DX. It has very good IQ, with decent reach at the long end, while avoiding the bulk and weight of the super zoom alternatives.
