If we hadn't decided to force the 34 as our base defense this year, the players selected in the last couple of drafts would be a nice foundation to build a defense around.

Agree with you 100% on the first paragraph concerning the Vermiel drafts - they set the team back three years at least. Not so much on the second paragraph.
If 3-4 defense is going to be better for the team in the long run, get it done - now. Not a year from now, not two years from now when they'll have to catch up to the offense but now.
The whole settling for what's easier than what's better is one of the reasons the Chiefs are in this pickle. Waiting until future seasons to implement the 3-4 if that's what Pioli sees as the teams future is asinine. It's repeating the same old mistakes of why the team is where it is today.
There is no better season than now to start converting to a 3-4 if that's where the team is going.
