    {
        /// 

        /// Render scripts as deferred
        /// 
        /// 
        /// The paths.

        /// The .
        /// 
        public static IHtmlString RenderDefer(params string[] paths)
        {
            return Scripts.RenderFormat(@"", paths);
        }
    }
}

Then, use Razor syntax:

@Scripts.RenderDefer("~/bundles/jquery")

Or Webform syntax:

<%: Scripts.RenderDefer("~/bundles/jquery") %>
