I would just fold that one. Reason is simple, your not deep enough to call. And by that I don't mean that you're stack is not big enough that "calling doesn't hurt you". You should realize that with a hand like 87s you will either hit draws or mid pairs. Now mid pairs sorta suck to play multi way OOP so it's really down to the draws. However, you're less than 20 BB effective deep against your opponents and you will mostly need much higher implied odds, not only cuz you won't hit a draw as often in the first place but also to play it profitable after the flop.

How much deep should you be in order to play like this?
