It's thin, but you're getting about 7:1 to call the flop c/r. Add in the customary turn lead and that's 9:1. You've got 8:1 odds to improve on the turn, and decent implied odds because a J or T is much less likely to scare your opponent into checking the turn than an Ace or King. The turn is easy to play because any J or T (including diamonds) you can raise and fold to a 3bet against all but the most aggressive opponents. Even if he calls your turn raise with a FD or OESD, you still have about 80% equity. If he calls with a lower pair you have 90% equity.
3betting the flop is probably spew but calling a c/r with two overs is almost always correct in this situation imo unless the board is extremely coordinated (three flush cards or three to a straight) and you have no piece of the draw.
