Aldon Smith was drafted 7th overall while JPP and Irvin were both drafted at #1. I really don't think any of those teams really count as teams that could wait given that they were picking earlier than halfway through the 1st round.

JPP was in a rotation with Justin Tuck and Osi, they could definitely afford to develop him. Aldon Smith wasn't a project to begin with but he and Irvin were drafted to young teams, the Saints are not. With Brees getting older we need to get shite done now.

say it takes a season and a half to two seasons for him to develop into a very good DE in the league and double digit sacker. Do you honestly think there is someone that is that much of an immediate difference maker in this draft around the middle of the first round that it would be worth passing up better long term potential?
