Although I'm 99% sure he'll never play a full season, I would probably still take him. I say this because in that 1% chance that he does play a full season, he would be a top 3 C.

I think you do it, if the price is right. I suspect there will be a bit of a bidding war among teams offering cheap contracts and it might come down to which team Oden WANTS to go to or which team is the most desperate and offers the most money.
Either way, given the way the raps' salary structure is going to shake out over the next 3-4 years, you'd be foolish not to give it a shot (unless the league goes to a hard cap or something after the upcoming negotiations). It may not pan out, but just about every team has bad contracts and he could always be dumped. If there's one thing BC's proven, it's that he can dump his mistakes.

You're not very good at business then. The cost benefit analysis on Oden reads - DO NOT TOUCH.
Amare had the surgery once on one knee and it wasn't that bad.
Oden has had too many surgeries to justify paying him one cent at his age. His knees have arthritis and he's only going to be big and fat as he's not playing this year. Brandon Roy is going to be on the shelf in about 2 years as well.
No cartridge in knee = no more basketball.

Should the Raptors try and sign him once he hits the market?
I personally think that we should offer him a short term deal. We really need to true C and Oden has the potential to one of the best in the league if he can stay healthy.
