5NL ZOOM totally missplayed

Blinds: $0.02/$0.05 (6 Players) BN: $5.55
SB: $5.02
BB: $5.26
UTG: $5.31
MP: $7.58
CO: $16.56 (Hero)
BB is 20/16 with 9,1 3B from BB - cbet flop 60%, cbet turn 60% for 317 hands
Preflop ($0.07) Hero is CO with 6 7
2 folds, Hero raises to $0.12, 2 folds, BB raises to $0.40, Hero calls $0.28
67s i mostly fold to 3bets, but this one was relatively small i think so decided to call in position
Flop ($0.82) 5 8 J
BB bets $0.26, Hero calls $0.26
call is better than raise I think?
Turn ($1.34) 5 8 J 3
BB checks, Hero bets $0.45, BB calls $0.45
So here is where i struggle - I am not really sure when to play my draws aggresively and when just to check and realise my equity on the river.
But I think if we are going to play it aggresively and going to bet turn and river we have to polarize and bet here like pot size or even overbet and ship it on river - i used block bet because i tried to fold his AcKx, AcQx
River ($2.24) 5 8 J 3 J
BB checks, Hero bets $2.35, BB calls $2.35
i decided to overbet river, but just the turn block bet doesnt really make sense i think and he is never folding overpair here, so it is pretty ambitious
Final Pot BB wins and shows two pair, Queens and Jacks.
CO lost and shows a pair of Jacks.
BB wins $6.65
Rake is $0.29

I will appreciate your opinions on how to play that hand.
Also in general when is better to play our draws aggresively and when just to check and get a free card - would you bet that turn or not and what sizing to use?
