This hand looks good to me as well.

I do however, have a very newb question. With overcards in and the nut flush in this position, would raising be a viable option or would calling/checking be the move? I find myself calling here alot without a pair, and I'm wondering if I'm playing draws such as those correctly.

You have no pair and you're calling with one overcard and the backdoor flush draw? This is just an exercise in out-counting then. Depending on the action preflop, you can discount your overcards however you see fit, and add 1.5 for the backdoor flush. If the pot is laying the correct odds, your call is fine. Same if you have two overcards.
