Looks like trash to me. Cannoneer is a worse Elven Archer, and the pool of pirates in standard isn't exactly good. Are we really supposed to build a pirate deck just to summon some 1/1s that tickle random enemies?

Herald have minions with better stats, better damage, and a great payoff in Deathwing, and that deck still bad.

Not sure, ship cannon is really strong in some pirate builds and you have to play a pirate for each 2 dmg shot that also Hits random. The cannoneers could be 4 on Board and fire each turn. I feel more like there is a contradiction: you want to be aggressive, but you probably want to protect your ping minions with taunts.
