I don't know how you can claim to know how they will trend two years out, particularly since we don't even know who the opposition nominees will be.

Vulnerable Democratic
AZ(Kelly-D) if Ducey-R is the GOP Nominee.
NV(Cortez Masto-D) if Sandoval-R is the GOP Nominee.
NH(Hassan-D) if Sununu-R is the GOP Nominee.
AZ,NV,and NH are battleground states with Current or Former Governors as the GOP challengers.
Democrats are safe in CA(whoever Newsom appoints-D),CO(Bennet-D),CT(Blumenthal-D),HI(Schatz-D),IL(Duckworth-D),MD(Van Hollen-D),NY(Schumer-D),OR(Wyden-D),VT(Leahy-D),and WA(Murray-D).
These are strong Democratic states.
Vulnerable Republican
PA(OPEN Toomey-R)
NC(OPEN Burr-R)
WI(Johnson-R)
FL(Rubio-R)
OH(Portman-R)
IA(if OPEN Grassley-R/Vilsack-D is the Democratic Nominee.)
PA,NC,WI,FL,OH,and IA are battleground states with top tier Democratic challengers.
The GA US Senate seat(Loeffler-R vs Warnock-D).

which is highly unlikely, to say the least. Iowa is no longer a battleground state, nor is Florida. And Burr will likely have his seat back if he wants it. I think we can classify your list as wishful thinking.
