the deadlifts are very stiff-legged, your hips pretty much stay in the same spot from when you bend over to grip the bar to lift-off to lockout. The hips gotta get down some so you can use your quads and glutes more instead of just your erectors and hamstrings. I think it shows up in your squats too because the bar speed is slow when the glutes should be firing hard.
If you refine your deadlift start position to get the legs more involved you should see a big improvement. Right now you're stiff-legging some good weight, should transfer to a big dead once you dial in the start.
