Also should mean less chaos for this draft with the scouting staff acting as always instead of being guided in a new direction; they've done well under Treliving and that shouldn't change.
Will miss Treliving, the only way they find that level of quality in a replacement is to go inexperienced and hope he works out like Treliving did.
Will be good to have Maloney if they do go that route.

I disagree. I feel like when you read between the lines of this move, Edwards promoted Maloney because he is willing to do what Treliving wasn't and that is tow the line as a company man through and through.
I bet that this PoHo position was just offered to Tre as an olive branch move, and he shot it down as he wasn't willing to bend over for Edward's any longer. Maloney may be a good man, but I don't have any confidence that he is in this role as someone who is looking to reshape the organization or take it to where it needs to go.
Time will tell I guess and hopefully I'm wrong.
