I do have a great option for you, however the CargoSmart Soft-Sided Car Top Carrier # CS94FR is really only designed to be used inside of a roof cargo basket like the Yakima # Y07070. Its integrated straps aren't long enough for alternate mounting and I don't recommend using bungees for this as they're going to allow for too much movement and may not be strong enough during travel.
A better option for your Jeep's bare roof is with the Rightline Gear Sport 2 # RL100S20, which features a slightly larger 15 cubic feet storage capacity and long, durable straps that can mount to a bare roof using the integrated rubber-coated car clips that will attach to the door frames.
Unlike the CargoSmart bag you were looking at, the Rightline Bag is also completely waterproof, which will do a great job of protecting your cargo from the elements. I have attached a short video review below that you can also check out.
