if you are putting forth any sort of intensity in the squats and leg press I don't see at all how you would be able to then do deadlifts.

and where is your upper back training? no lat work in there.

workout needs serius revision

What if you switched back raises for a lat pull-down/pull ups on every other upper body day? Would that suffice?

Yeah, was thinking about adding t-bar/ lat pull down. Maybe swap between the Squats and deadlifts.

Of course this isn't the finshed article, still adding bits etc..

No problem. Try to switch some stuff around to make some room. Or alternate exercises on some days etc.
