I have a strange feeling that Paea is overrated.

I think Paea is the most NFL game ready DT after the top two. Wilkerson might have more upside but is prolly more of a project.
From one of the most comprehensive scouting reports on him I've read ( full report here)...
Paea faced constant double-teams in his senior season and still managed to win the Pac-10 defensive player of the year award and, perhaps even more impressively, the Morris trophy, an award given to the best defensive lineman in the Pac-10 as voted on by the conferences offensive lineman. Furthermore, Paea is relatively new to football having not played until his senior year in high school... His ability is not necessarily of always making the tackle, but rather wreaking havoc in the play design by pushing his blocker out of position. His initial burst off the ball and strength at the point of attack are truly top notch... His initial punch at the point of attack seems to stun linemen who find themselves on their heels pretty quickly. He rarely gets pushed around and forces double teams since it is hard for one lineman to control him. Paea doesn’t have ideal size but he has a thick, muscular build... Extremely humble, passionate, and driven are all words that could be used to describe Paea. A team captain in 2009 and 2010, he is well respected by coaches and teammates alike. In 2010 he was a candidate for college football’s Lott Trophy which is awarded to the top FBS defensive player who exhibits “integrity, maturity, performance, academics, community and tenacity.” Not much more needs to be said... Typical of players who come from areas such as Tonga, Paea is as tough as they come. He grew up as a rugby player before moving to the United States and taking up football. Then there is the famous YouTube video which shows Paea doing 44 reps of 225 lbs. on the bench press AFTER a complete workout. Teams know they will not have to worry about toughness with Paea... Teams will factor in his lack of experience knowing that he has much room to grow as a football player.

Charles Davis comment on him was "Feed him!"
Even better as a draft score could be landing Phil Taylor or Marvin Austin at #56 tho
