You're right. The Chiefs should just ignore all workouts and evaluations completely and draft a QB no matter what, because there's nobody else worth taking. They should definitely back in to the pick. That's a great idea. So if all the scouts, including the Chiefs', grade Sanchez as a #15 pick at best (hypothetically, of course), they should take him no matter what.
There are other options. If the Chiefs move to a 3-4, BJ Raji is not "another defensive tackle." He becomes the only player on the Chiefs' roster capable of playing nose tackle--the most important position on defense in a 3-4. If the Chiefs like Crabtree or Maclin enough, those are two players who play important positions under a coach who loves receivers. If you go to the school of "you can never have too many cornerbacks" argument, than Malcolm Jenkins also becomes an option.
All of a sudden, it doesn't sound so stupid to even consider trading out of the #3 pick anymore. Does it?
