Something to add the clean_url filter solution, make sure to validate to use it only on the font-end maybe using if( ! is_admin() ){} popular plugins like ACF might give you a headache.

Update

Here is my modified version of the solution:

if( ! is_admin() ){
  add_filter( 'clean_url', 'so_18944027_front_end_defer', 11, 1 );
  function so_18944027_front_end_defer( $url ) {
    if ( FALSE === strpos( $url, '.js' ) )
    { // not our file
        return $url;
    }
    // Must be a ', not "!
    return "$url' defer='defer";
  }
}
