Rooster - His faults are the white in the tail, the color of beak is a little pale, and the eye color is pale. Otherwise I can't tell you anything about his tail angle, his back, etc. He's pretty good beyond that.

Hen - Check those legs and soles. Are the soles yellow? They appear to be so. That would be a serious fault. Otherwise she seems fine other than too little of coppering.
 
Technically it will take more than just a generation to improve type from two parents, but yes, you may get some improvement. Personally I stay away from males w/white in the tail though, and if the hen does indeed have yellow, I'd stay away from that too. A Marans w/yellow soles is like an Ameraucana w/yellow soles.
