The model GFS/Euro consensus for what is still in western Africa and may become Invest 93L down the road is for a recurve well east of the CONUS fwiw. I know, I know wait for it to become a TC first (assuming it does) or at least wait til it gets over water. This is mainly for documentation purposes.
 
Interestingly, although the overwhelming consensus of the 12Z models including ensemble members was for an easy recurve well east of the CONUS of the wave currently over W Africa (maybe future 93L), the 18Z GFS due to solid ridging further west in the W Atlantic has this go all of the way to near Puerto Rico at hour 180.

Edit: However, this still recurves well est of the CONUS near 72W.

GFS VS CMC :
GFS - flattens everything and says what development?

CMC - Develops everything. Takes 91 into Yucatan, 92 through the islands and into the Gulf, and to be 93 OTS like Gert. Hervey, Irma, and Jose there.

By day ten the Cmc has 93L heading almost due west underneath the ridge headed for the east coast
