You didn't ask if it worked out for those teams.
For all of you who are hopeing to rebuild the Gronk Hernandez duo again, please present other instances of teams who have TWO no 1 TE's on the roster

There aren't many DT's in the draft, and young top-end talent would be great. We found some good rotational and depth players last season.
It is hard to plot out a draft strategy before FA.

Up until this past year, the Pats did, and it led to one of the most effective offenses in modern NFL history. Who cares if other teams don't do it? The Pats have never been followers anyway.
Besides, with Gronk's propensity for getting injured, two #1-caliber TEs might be a necessity to ensure that they can consistently have even one good TE on the field.
To answer your question, though, the Chargers have Ladarius Green and Antonio Gates. The Eagles have Zach Ertz (not there yet, but an intriguing player) and Brent Celek. The Bengals have Jermaine Gresham and Tyler Eifert. The Saints have (had) Jimmy Graham and Ben Watson.
And the Pats can blow every one of those combinations out of the water with Gronk and one of the top 3 TE prospects in this draft.
Defense wins championships. We have seen Brady score on opponents only to see the other qb shred our defense, score, and win. Our offense will be fine without spending the #1 pick on a TE unless that player is way too good to pass up.
From what I recall, the Patriots played the majority of their season last year with no #1 tight ends and it showed in the red zone.
No it doesn't, whichever team scores the most points wins championships.
You can word it however you like, but the SuperBowl winners throughout the years won because they had a superior defense. Or if you prefer, scored more points because they held their opponent to a lesser amount.
