Velocity NFL Prep · Canton, Georgia
Pre-draft training
for Offensive linemen.
Velocity Athlete Development has developed 4 first-round draft picks, 45+ professional athletes, and 170+ D1 athletes. The Program brings that experience to 2027 NFL Draft hopefuls with technical awareness, speed, and power. For offensive linemen, by offensive linemen.
Why Velocity for Performance
Trained like a lineman.
Not an oversized skill player.
Most pre-draft programs run linemen through a receiver's training week, scaled up. A decade of preparing offensive linemen taught us the opposite: big frames accelerate, load, and recover differently, and testing numbers move when the training respects that.
01
Speed
The fastest offensive line group ever tested came off this floor. Acceleration mechanics and top-end speed, coached for the frame that carries them and timed against Combine standards.
02
Strength that tests
ForceDecks testing, bar speed on the lifts. We know what is actually getting stronger week to week, so Pro Day numbers move because the training moved them.
03
Power that transfers
Jumps, splits, and drive out of a stance: explosive qualities built for a lineman's testing day and a lineman's job description.
One building
Nothing about the Training gets outsourced.
Position coach's, performance coaches, physical therapy, and recovery all on site, all on one schedule.
Agents and athletes coordinate with one staff, not four.

Joint and Muscle Isometric Strength frame
VALD ForceFrame
Isometric strength at the hips, knees, and shoulders the joints that get exposed through testing.
Force plates · the flagship
VALD ForceDecks
Every jump in the Combine battery starts here: force, rate of force, and left-right balance, read on ForceDecks. It's how we know power is climbing before test day proves it, and how we catch fatigue before it costs a week of the block.
Bar speed, live
Vitruve VBT
Bar speed on every lift, so the load matches what the athlete has that day. Ninety days leaves no room for junk sessions.
The Velocity Way: Test · Gap · Plan
Small Room
Small room.
Sharp focus.
We don't pack the room. We stay small, coach hard, and know every athlete by their numbers and their name. Bigger rooms miss the small stuff.
FAQ
What prospects and agents ask us.
The program is built around the window leading into the Combine and Pro Day, so most prospects begin shortly after their college season ends. Starting earlier buys time to correct the technique scouts will scrutinize on film before all star games and start on preformance training.
Offensive line only. Specializing in OL allows us to get specific with the training for both the positional and performance side.
