Day 1 of the 2014 NFL draft saw plenty of trade movement, but Day 2 made the first round look awfully boring in comparison.

Whether it was a team moving up a couple of spots to get a prospect high on their board or organizations trading down to stockpile future picks, the action was often and seemed to occur every few picks.
Let's dive right in and take a look at every move during Friday—as well as break down the biggest ones.

Biggest Moves
49ers Trade up to No. 57, Select Carlos Hyde
The San Francisco 49ers moved every which way throughout the second round and swapped picks from team to team. In the end, the move of theirs that generated the most noise was the one at No. 57.
After seeing Bishop Sankey and Jeremy Hill go back-to-back at 54 and 55, the 49ers made no mistake about it and got their running back in Carlos Hyde.
The Ohio State product was regarded by many as the draft's top rusher, and his style of running will translate great to the NFL. At 6'0" and 230 pounds, he has the strength to burst through the line, toughness to be a three-down back and the speed to get to the outside.
Plus, this selection from the Niners might give us a hint about one former early-round running back pick, B/R Lead Writer for Sports Medicine Will Carroll added:
Frank Gore is getting up there in years, and with San Francisco making yet another investment early in the draft at running back—albeit one that perfectly fits its physical, ground-and-pound system—this definitely smells of an impact player early on for a Super Bowl contender.
Titans Trade Down, Take RB Sankey
Among teams needing help most at running back entering Friday were the Titans, who lost Chris Johnson over the offseason and can't afford to depend on a Shonn Greene that was injured much of 2013.
But with the second round wearing on and Tennessee nearing its 42nd overall pick—the 10th of Round 2—the team's brass realized it wasn't the time. They traded down, gaining an extra fourth-rounder in the 122nd overall pick and dropped a dozen spots from 42 to 54.
Why? They knew their guy—Washington running back Bishop Sankey—would be there.
Sankey is more on the quick end of tail backs as ESPN's Adam Caplan noted, making him an ideal pick in Tennessee where he can replace Johnson:
The Titans need a dependable back that can turn space into big chunk plays while Greene can be the short-yardage back. Sankey seems to fit that mold particularly well.
Sankey also played with Titans quarterback Jake Locker at Washington in 2011—adding another interesting dynamic should Locker maintain the starting job and Sankey develop into a feature back.
On the surface, the Titans would have gotten the best rusher in the draft by picking Carlos Hyde but ultimately got the better fit for their system.
Jaguars Trade Up to No. 61, Draft Second WR of Day
Jacksonville wasted no time Thursday making the boom pick of the first round by drafting Blake Bortles at No. 3 overall, and it was a mirror scenario Friday at Radio City Music Hall.
With their seventh pick of Round 2, the Jaguars took Marqise Lee—giving Bortles his inevitable throwing buddy and helping pad a position that was very thin entering the draft.
But the Jags weren't done there.
Nearing their 70th overall pick, the Jags moved up nine spots to No. 61 in order to secure Allen Robinson, another talented wideout.
ESPN's Adam Schefter captured the Jaguars' new franchise trio in the passing game:
Going one-two-three all with players regarding not just one side of the ball but one aspect of the offense, is bold—but needed. Jacksonville's offense miserably lacked direction and promise entering the weekend, while the defense looked to be in much better shape last year.
It remains to be seen whether Bortles will develop into the starter and franchise quarterback Jacksonville expects, or if Lee holds up health-wise. But at the very least, the Jags invested in their future in a bold way early in the 2014 draft.
