I think a lot of people are underestimating how quickly some of the Scandinavian countries would offer to facilitate NATO if Russia were to go after Estonia. Norway is already a member and there has been talk of Sweden joining up if Russia continues its push. The Finnish have also been pretty vocal in their criticism of Putin. Between those countries and the Eastern members of Poland, Latvia, and Lithuania, you'd think NATO would have enough strategic points around the Baltic to push Russia out of Estonia.
