Default top pair and flush draw - too fast? (routine/boring)

live 2/5 NL at bellagio. I have fairly tight image. Loose crazy guy is cutoff, decentish young kid is button, I am BB w/ QJc. We all have around $650. crazy guy just called off his whole stack on a backdoor flush draw and cracked someones set.

Cutoff limps, I call, BB checks. 3 to the flop, Jh 4c 5c.

I check, crazy bets 15, button calls, I checkraise to 60, both fold.

there has to be some way to extract more value from this hand?

It's not a set, it's a drawing hand. Winnning the pot uncontested is fine.

Id just lead the flop, if they are calling your checkraise and you miss on the turn whats your plan of action?

All you had was top pair probably best kicker, I'm sure everyone else had garbage. You don't have to "slowplay" top pair. Seems fine. Fatty c/r getting called might be bad.
