Really easy raise preflop. He'll limp call a ton of worse hands and thus you'll have position in a raised pot with a hand that is doing well vs/dominating a lot of his range. If he folds then hey you pick up a bb and that certainl'y isn't terrible. It's just way better to build a pot IP vs a weak range, gain the initiatvie to take down a raised pot on the flop with your c bets etc etc than it is to check vs a player that's likely limp/calling too much when you have a hand that is just going to have A high in a tiny pot with no initiative too often.
As played, post flop I think Jx is a sizable part of his range and if he's b/c flop and turn with it then betting this amount on the river, there's no way he's folding hands like QJ KJ JT etc if you raise, just stick the rest in.
