Ryan Williams Leaves Hokies for NFL

As expected, redshirt sophomore tailback Ryan Williams officially announced his intentions to enter the NFL Draft Sunday.

Williams ran for a school record 1,655 yards and 21 touchdowns as a redshirt freshman but was hampered by injuries to his hamstring this season.

Williams is thought to be a potential first round selection in April's draft and is one of the top overall backs joining the likes of last year's Heisman Trophy winner Alabama's Mark Ingram.

Here's a highlight reel from Williams' record-setting freshman season.

Darren Evans Declares For NFL Draft

Virginia Tech Redshirt junior tailback Darren Evans announced he was skipping his senior season to enter the NFL Draft.

Evans rushed for 854 yards and 11 touchdowns this season after missing all of 2009-10 with a torn ACL. The season prior, Evans ran for a then freshman record 1,265 yards and 11 touchdowns.

Evans may soon be joined by fellow Tech back Ryan Williams who many feel is leaning towards declaring early as well.

Hokie Defensive End Jason Worilds Declares for NFL Draft

Virginia Tech junior defensive end Jason Worilds will forgo his senior season and enter the NFL Draft.

Worilds had 49 tackles this season, including 11 for loss and 4.5 sacks.

As a redshirt sophomore, Worilds had a career season with 62 tackles, 18 for loss and 8 sacks.

Despite his relentless motor on the field and his ability to disrupt plays without getting statistical credit, Worilds has struggled with injuries during his career at Tech.

Worilds got a medical redshirt after having season-ending shoulder surgery in 2006. Worilds battled a sore shoulder throughout 2008, eventually having to sit out Tech's Orange Bowl victory.

Worilds underwent surgery again after that season, and missed off-season workouts and spring practice leading up to 2009.
