After leading the Bears to the Super Bowl in 2013 Cre8 has opted out of his final year as the President and GM in Chicago.
The new destination should prove to be extremely difficult, even for this great front office guru.
Jacksonville
The Jaguars were purchased a few years ago by Shad Khan. While he used his money to make a splash his team has fell with a resounding thud. Cre8 has been hired to help this struggling Franchise rebound and he is looking to change many things about the culture in Jacksonville's NFL scene.
"If these fans don't come out to support their team we will move elsewhere. Let it be known that I have spoken with Mr. Khan and he is open to my suggestions."
First order of business...
Take care of a dangerously close salary cap that was blown on players like Matt Roth ($36 million), Marcedes Lewis ($35 Million), Jeremy Mincy ($30 Million) and the coup de gras...
back up QB, Blaine Gabbert has 3 years left on a $30 million deal while last year's #2 pick Clinton Derricotte is signed for $65 million over 4 years...
It could get ugly.
