I have shelved my BA until new codex, in the meanwhile I have acquired some Chaos Daemons.

I have 7 flesh hounds and now I am wondering how should I run them. Which one works better, 7 hounds (could buy more later..) with Karanak or tooled up Herald of Khorne on Juggernaut? I'd like to think overflanking is better, but scouting can enable 1st turn charges. On the other hand Herald gives more staying and hitting power, but leaves the hounds under shooting for a longer period.

How should I fill up this unit for 1750pts games?

Having played against these beasts, I'd say the possibility of 1st turn charge is more important. Right now I hate those things more than helldrakes.

I've normally seen them deployed right up against the line in the middle. This always forces me to deploy further back in hopes of staying out of charge range. Adding scout would limit my deployment options even more. Of course, they are a top priority target when I see them.
