That said my hope is that someone may be able to tell me whether I'll be able to get a shower on the arrival or departure side, what a common wait time might be, and if I need to have a towel.

Thanks in advance.

Oh, and I have access to the AF lounge through DL PM status.

You can take a shower in the AF lounge in the 2E concourse (airside) you are departing from. It will be for sure a busy time for showers as a lot of long-haul flights arrive at that time, but it's clearly impossible to predict how long your wait will be. But there's a significant number of showers (it's not like at KL lounge/AMS with their ridiculous 4 showers), so it shouldn't be a problem with your long connection time. And you don't need a towel (provided by AF).
To connect from T3, you will have to walk to the RER/CDGVAL station (about 200m) and take the CDGVAL to T2, then walk to T2E.
