I myself would add more arm exercises.....but that's me.

In general I think your routine is good.

Just my opinion,

I think you need to cut down on your squats to 4 sets, through in a few more arm movements, and do lateral raises for the shoulders. Deadlifts are a great!!! exercise, they're a big part of my routine. But I would keep the regular deadlifts like they are, cut down your partials to no more than 3 sets, and do some barbell rows.
