Garcia played both tackle and guard at UF before moving to center for his senior season. The transfer from Maryland, started 24 games for the Gators and consistently graded out high his senior season.

A little later Saturday, linebacker Neiron Ball became the sixth Gator to hear his name called. He was selected by the Oakland Raiders in the fifth round with the 161st overall pick.
