Do you think that all Dem Senators and Governors will endorse Hillary in 2016? Or some Senator/Governor won't endorse any candidate or will endorse another candidate? If yes, who?

All will endorse her if she wins the nomination. During the primary, those who may endorse her opponent(s) include some of the senate's most liberal members: Chris Murphy, Barbara Mikulski, Ben Cardin, Maria Cantwell, and Tammy Baldwin. Montana Gov. Steve Bullock, outgoing Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe, & Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear would probably endorse someone running to Hillary's right.

(the above is not guaranteed to be a complete list.)

Almost every Democratic governor/Senator will either endorse Hillary or not endorse at all. The only possible exceptions I can think of would be Bullock for Schweitzer and Shumlin for Sanders, but even those aren't guaranteed.

Mikulski, Cantwell, Baldwin and the rest of the Democratic female senators have signed a letter where they urge Hillary to run.

I'm pretty sure David Ige (the Governor of Hawaii) will endorse Luis Gutierrez if he runs.

Pretty much this, although there could be a few progressive congresspeople, like Barbara Lee for example, who endorse Sanders. There might also be a few moderate or conservative ones who endorse Schweitzer/Webb.

Most Senators/Representatives/Governors will endorse Hillary like how Gore in 2000 got more endorsements. If O Malley runs, I guess Hoyer and Cardin will endorse him.

Looks like Bob Kerrey will most likely endorse Webb, but I wouldn't hold my breat on any *sitting* governors or senators endorsing him.
