Ram V is currently writing the new Venom book, so he's at least involved with Marvel.
Gillen wrote Young Avengers. I don't think he'd have any interest in "vanilla" Avengers though.
Because Aaron likes mashing stuff together, I guess.
I've been reading the She-Hulk storyline and I'm still confused as to who the current line-up is?

I can see Al Ewing doing it. He had four books at one point (Ultimates2, Rocket, Royals and U.S.Avengers), but currently only has SWORD and Venom, as Guardians of the Galaxy was cancelled and Immortal Hulk has finished. And he's not even on all issues of Venom as it's divided into two stories featuring Eddie and Dylan Brock, one by Ewing and the other by Ram V. He's written Avengers before, but not the main book solo (he's done Mighty, New, and U.S., and No Surrender and it's sequel in collaboration with Waid and Zub).
If not him, then maybe Jim Zub, whose only current Marvel ongoing is Conan if I'm not mistaken. He had a brief run on Uncanny Avengers but apart from the aforementioned collabs hasn't done the main book. And I liked his Champions.

Would love to see either Ewing or Zub, both are great writers and are terrific with team books.
But to be honest any writer could do better than Aaron. He set the bar so so so so so so so so so low that it's impossible that any other writer could do worse than him (although Cates could be worse than Aaron).

Now, who DON'T you want to see handling the Avengers after Aaron. Of course, it has to be someone that is an actual possibility of taking over one of Marvel's main books.
