Throw in some rear delt/mid-trap work and you should be good.

No. They get some work with cables rows, but it's not direct. Deads don't work that area.

i plan to up weight once i hit upper rep range in all sets or almost all sets. and with that volume is that ok that I go to failure on last set of each exercise and possibly some others? and even use 1-2 forced reps on last last

Only you can answer that. I don't know what your recovery capabilities, sleep quality, nutrition, stress levels, etc.
