Yes, that is the third option

Gandalf discovers the morgul blade and leaves the dwarves to investigate. He finds the empty tombs whilst the dwarves get into trouble with the trolls. The other options would seem to be: They are in Dol Guldur, Gandalf finds them when he finds mad Thrain, recounted in flashback. However, the only proof Gandalf is able to come up with is the Morgul blade, and the threat is discounted by Saruman. In this version, Dol Guldur would have been a nazgul stronghold in the past, where they where defeated. Thus accounting for Dol Guldur being ruined. As a less likely option, "Fog on the Barrow Downs" from Fellowship could be moved, with the dwarves losing the road in thick fog between Shire and Trollshaws, and Gandalf having to rescue them, and coming across the empty tombs, which would be Barrows. In all cases, the biggest problem with lore is having all nine nazgul imprisoned, since if this is the case, who is occupying Minas Morgul?
A Far Dragon is the best kind...
