I think reraising from position with JJ is a sound play but others may disagree. The reasons I want to limit the size of the reraise:

1. I want to get AA and KK to raise more, not just call - this is the standard play for these hands and I need information
2. I want to be able to bet the pot on the flop without committing too many chips. This is what I would normally do if I was checked to on the flop with an A, K or Q showing - represent AK or AQ.

Getting value out of JJ as an overpair is not easy, but it can be done and should be done as part of an aggressive strategy.
