If you're already paying them that much money there is really no reason to not make it a full time job even if it requires a good sized pay increase. They do a lot of different things during the week, but a lot of that is up to the individual so some strict guidelines about how much/what film they should watch should be set up that increases their time in the film room.
Here's an article about everyone's favorite ref Ed. It shows there is plenty he does and even more he could be doing if he was full time.

Thank you for the info on the wages, and the article on Ed Hochuli. However the article only re-enforces my point. As it stated in the article, this is the schedule for a typical NFL week. Overall during the regular season, he works about 30 hours a week. That is during the season, when he has to review game tapes, write letters to the league office etc. What are they going to do for the 28 other weeks in the year when there isn't a game? Review the tapes even more? He said he reviews game tape for about 15 hours a week during the season. I guess he should maybe review the same tapes again, and again, and again? There are no games, thus no new tapes for them to review.
What is there for them to do for 40 hours a week for 28 weeks when there aren't any games? They only work 30 hours a week during the season when there are games.
