Jones was ranked higher even with his age downgrade. He’s simply a better player.
Scott was just an example and thr first WR that popped to mind. I don't hate the pick and don't know much about him as a player. Just seems odd given how the Bengals have treated the draft and free agency up until this pick (young players who won't be 30) and he goes against all that.
That said, maybe they see him as a great player and is worth going against convention. Obviously we need a 4th WR so if he's an upgrade over Irwin it's still a win.
