I am not too experienced with cover letters, or applying, but that letter is longer than the ones I sent out when applying for my first post doc/jobs, and the one I have created now to apply for my second post doc.

The Cover Letter should answer a few questions:

Why you are applying for the position.
Why you are a good candidate for the position.
What information they should expect.
Where 'you are' now.
