Anyone heard anything recent about Arenas' health?
Is it back to 95%+?
Or is he still battling?
any links would be great.

Time to drop him down your cheat sheet, and bump Butler up.

I'm still trying to figure out when would be a decent time to pick Arenas up. I remember a a couple years back Gasol was slated to be out for a couple of months with a broken foot. He ended up slipping to round 8 in one of my drafts. Needless to say, he came back on time, put up monster numbers, and propelled many a team to a fantasy championship.
I'm thinking you can't let Agent 0 slide out of the mid-late fourth round. A 5th round pick would be a STEAL. Anyone else got any input?

I'd definitely be taking Caron in the mid-late 2nd round of a 12 teamer.
Arenas in a 12 teamer... even when he comes back he won't be playing 40mins a game, and will be missing the odd game here and there...
so, in Roto i'd go with 6-7th round in 12 teamer
H2H, depending on format, maybe a 5th? but you'd have to be confident with the way your draft is going to make sure you'll be a playoff chance before selecting him.
