I've been working on this Erebos deck too... Erebos + ramp lets you basically play EDH like the old Necropotence + Drain Life decks from the mid 90s. So nostalgic.

Am I missing Phyrexian Arena in your list somewhere? I think I'd run Arena before I ran Underworld Connections.
Also, Yawgmoth's Bargain is banned in this format IIRC...despite whatever it says over on the mothership.
Since Cabal Coffers is such a tank, maybe you should be playing Expedition Map? Probably black fetches too since you have Top and want shuffle effects whenever possible. I could also see Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx putting in work here, acting as an almost 'Coffers. Looks like a fun deck for sure.
Whenever I play Necropotence I usually add Reliquary Tower because t's nice to draw 20 cards off of Necro and then keep all of the cards.
Changes:
-2 Swamp
+1 Nykthos, Shrine of not quite Cabal Coffers
+1 Reliquary Tower
Expedition Map is "hidden" under Tutors
