ATLANTA - Georgia Tech juniors Morgan Burnett (S), Jonathan Dwyer (RB) and Derrick Morgan (DE) will enter their names in the NFL draft, all three players confirmed Monday.
The Yellow Jacket trio joins junior wide receiver Demaryius Thomas, who made a similar announcement on Friday.
With Monday's announcements, Georgia Tech loses the 2008 ACC Player of the Year (Dwyer), the 2009 ACC Defensive Player of the Year and first team All-American (Morgan), and an All-ACC defender (Burnett).
Burnett will leave Georgia Tech with 14 career interceptions, tying for the second-most in school history and just two shy of tying the Tech record of 16 held by Willie Clay (1988-91). His 235 career tackles are the eighth-most by a defensive back in Yellow Jacket history.
