I could also see some of the A350s potentially being A333 replacements as well - though they're being overhauled now, they'll be roughly 20 years old by the end of this decade.
There really is no comparable aircraft to replace the 762's - according to Wikipedia the 332 is the closest you're going to get. Perhaps the 332's will replace the 762's once the 358's and 359's come in.
