Default probably a boring big blind hand

its recently been pointed out to me that my play in the blinds is not good. i've been trying to find spots to show some more aggression. how far off base am i in this hand? no reads.

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is BB with 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. UTG posts a blind of $1.
UTG (poster) checks, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls, UTG calls.

Flop: (6.50 SB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG 3-bets</font>, Button folds, Hero calls.

Turn: (6.75 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, UTG checks.

Fold preflop. That makes the hand a lot easier. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Is it really standard to call here getting 5.5:1 preflop against 2 unknowns? I would definitely call suited 1 gappers like 57s 68s ...but 84s seems too weak?

By the way ...my folded BB to steal is 48%...
