This may seem very bold, but it is possible. 

Edmund is locked in for number 1 if he stays fit.

But as for number 2, Norrie is looking like ATP 250/challenger player at peak level and will not get top 50.

Evans, will never get back to top 50 and will also peak at about 70-100 at best for remainder of career. 

Murray may have more points than Ward at the end of the year, but will retire at the end of the season, leaving Ward as number 2.

i.e. from October 2017 for his ranking position position in October 2018.

Anyway I see that while James is now predicted to be GB #2 and Cam "will not get top 50", in the predictions thread for next November Vandy has Cam as GB #2, WR 45 and James as GB #6, WR 180.

Entertaining and illogical as always  

Though reading the opening post as opposed to the title the James GB #2 thing is not really a prediction of what "will" be ( bold or otherwise ) as then being put up as a vague possibility post season occurence if a number of circumstances come together. But nice to cover bases.

Missed ya.

 Hence why this is called a bold prediction. I do wonder.......
