It's a development thing. 24, 25, 26 year olds should look better against college competition than 19, 20, 21 year olds. If they don't there's probably not much there when projecting to the next level.
If a player is talented enough, he'll get taken regardless of advanced age. The NFL has an insatiable need for really good college players. They'll just be devalued somewhat.
