Be forewarned: they will fatigue you. You might find yourself not as strong on your other exercises afterward, so I'd recommend cutting back on some sets; at least initially.

Thanks for the advice IM.
Here's what I've done: dropping the sets to 3 for DLs and lat pulls, and removing the 4th set of face pulls at the end of the routine keeps it in the right set volume (for me). I will take your advice on the power of the DLs and reduce how much I DB row.
This is just a draft, though. I'm still open to suggestions.
