You are guessing. You have no idea what they are getting paid.
You're saying the current staff? Well, sure, nobody knows what they're getting paid, and it's impossible to know because the whole staff hasn't even been assembled yet.
They look to be (wisely, IMO) surrounding Tomsula with positional coaches and coordinators who all have HC experience. My assumption is that positional coaches with HC experience likely get paid more than quality control coaches who get promoted up to positional coaches. It's a really, really, really, safe assumption.
If you're saying I'm guessing about what the coaches have been paid over the last four years, I'm not. The 9ers have had one of the highest paid coaching staffs in the NFL over the past four years. It has been reported widely.
Likewise, they're up against the salary cap every year.
If Jed was simply a penny pincher he'd 1) be promoting quality control coaches to coordinator positions rather than bringing in former coordinators and HCs, 2) wouldn't have been outspending the league on his coaching staff these last four years, and 3) wouldn't be butting up against the salary cap every year (the biggest one, by far, in terms of penny pinching).
There are no shortage of areas in which one could criticize Jed York, but being cheap just simply isn't one them.

Though I will laugh my ass off if it ever goes public that Mangini is getting more than Tomsula.
The highest paid coordinators in the league make around 2 million per. Tomsula makes 3.5. Don't hold your breath.
