Maybe not necessarily completely due to financial constraints, but having fewer staff members allows for easier and quicker collaboration. It's a lot easier to get 2-3 people in a room to discuss something and come to an agreement than it is 10 people.

But scouts...actually scout.

It's not like the 49ers scouts sit in a room and read Mel Kiper Jr's draft analysis and vote on what they think of a prospect. They actually go out and cover games.
