I had never heard the word 'Muttoneer' before. Love it.
Tinstreet Roofshank is fantastic. Gotta say, "dies" triggers are really great for making well-costed effects on bodies. I always forget that they exist unless I'm specifically looking for death synergy, but they're so good in so many more contexts!
I imagine any of the three could have (a given set's creature keyword) as well and still potentially come in at common.
Could any of them have (discard 2: if so, draw 2)? It seems like it might fit on the Muttoneer, but having two excess cards in your hand with your 5 drop might be a hard push. Rummaging is hard to gauge, but it's really quite a bit weaker than looting, right?
The upside of drawing 2 might be offset by the requirement of sacking 2. No, I take it back. I'd just discard a land and a non-critical spell. Still, that would be very cool at uncommon.

Ha. I thought I made it up as a portmanteau of mutton and mutineer. Hadn't realized it already existed.

Sac a land, discard a card: draw two sounds very Giant-y.
