Seems like there are still a few more VB's in the future to staff this new BES.

Very close. From September crew resources update.
“We will begin staffing EWR B787 with 15 captain and 20 first officer vacancies. Our current staffing target for summer 2019 is 55 captains and 105 first officers. Network Planning is working on regulatory approvals to fly six international Atlantic routes out of EWR which, added to some domestic flying, will be the mission of the EWR B787.”
