Calling a straddle is not the same as calling a raise.

Odds-wise, it is.

That may be, but my point was that it's different from calling a raise. While you may have a harder time recouping your initial investment on the later streets due to worse odds, you are less likely to be a big dog on your initial investment.

Your odds still suck. They just suck a little less. Still not worth going into the flop with. Way too much value being given to JTo here. At best, I'd give it about break even. I think even that's a kind estimate.
Or you would go into a capped pot with a bunch of loose guys who'd play just about anything with JTo? Say, capped by UTG+2(could even say all 3 raises were blind raises) and 3 cold callers to you.(That's a 6 way pot so far if blinds don't come along)
And if you are going to come in with that, how low will you go here? 98o?
JTo is a garbage hand to pay 2 bets with preflop multiway regardless of how it got to 2 bets.
