Smaller teams, and product management should be done by the development team. This will only work with at least some experienced developers on board who have shipped something before and had to deal with the results of that in production as well. For dedicated product managers the risk is high that the person does not know enough about the product or development. This is especially true in organizations where product management is an "easier" career path compared to development.
