...KJs in that type of game is well above their average hand that they're going to the flop with?

Well above is an extremely exaggerated, b. KJs teeters on the neut-EV range in this situation. Bad players still get good cards my friend and we have to remember the 3-better knows that he'll likely pay 3+ bets to see ths flop.

It might not be that exaggerated if the guy is that loose preflop with his raises. If he has a history of jamming preflop anyways, his range isn't going to change much regardless of what he thinks may happen after his raise. Especially if he'd likely have 3 bet here if there wasn't a straddle but an actual wild raise in front of him. You may be giving him too much credit for thinking about that.
Bad players that jam alot preflop get bad cards much more than good cards when they're doing this. Much worse cards than KJs. Sure, sometimes they do actually have something. Them's the breaks when it does.
