How did Johnson GET those 3 rings?
They were a direct result of the decision in question.

No, his SB rings were most definitely not a result of picking Steve Walsh in the supplemental draft and giving up his 1st round pick.
The Cowboys ended up giving up a #1 pick for three picks from the Saints, and the 1st rounder from that deal was used on Russell Maryland. However, Johnson admitted a few years later that the Walsh move was a mistake because they had to give up the 1st, and the top player on their board that year was Junior Seau.
So they could have had Junior Seau if they never made the bone-headed decision to take Walsh with a supp pick after already using a top pick on Aikman, but you seriously want to point to that move as the reason he has 3 rings. Yikes.

Of course they don't, I never said they did. However, you have criticized Pioli's draft record, despite the fact that his 3 SB rings are - using your words - a direct result of his drafting. You have a circular argument here that doesn't work.

In retrospect, we know that Johnson's decision was a good one, therefore it is stupid to criticize him.

Odd, Johnson has said himself it was a poor move and most Cowboys fans consider it the worst move he ever made. Plus the value he received out of those picks do not come close to equaling the value of the #1 overall pick he gave up.
But you say it's a good one. Hmmm.

It's not the same as claiming Scott Pioli can do no wrong because he has 3 rings to his name, that he earned with a different ****ing team.
But whatever, suit yourself. I really don't give a shit, other than the fact that there have been 7 selections, but 70+ posts whining about Hamas' ****ing pick.

I could give a shit who he picks in a fantasy mock draft, but I'm certainly going to point out major inaccuracies in your examples used to defend it.
