It really depends. If he runs on a regulary NFL field and has the proper gear to run in, then I think he can help his 40.
By a huge margin? I don't think so. I think he can run a legit 4.4-4.5 though.
But at the end of the day. This is Football and not Track and Field like some folks want you to believe.
MK put on about 15 lbs of muscle since the last I saw him. That has to impact his speed some. He never played at 220+ before.
He's what? 227 now?

This coming on the heels of a tumultous workout in Norman on Wednesday.

If he runs just as slow then he kills his draft stock. I think this is a bad idea.

There are rumours that John Woo will be helping prep the footage to be distributed to all 32 NFL teams.

Just digging himself a bigger hole by the day.
Who has ever heard of a workout where scouts CANNOT attend. So stupid I can't even imagine a single scout who would take it seriously.
Basically, Kelly is going to be given infinite chances to do each drill and pick the best looking one to add to the tape. This is almost as bad as people scouting through YouTube.

I don't think he's barring them, but rather they have other obligations already.

I'm sure Malcolm Kelly will run a 4.19 forty, have a 51 inch vertical, and a 18 foot broad jump before this is over with....

KELLY WILL RUN FOR SCOUTS ON APRIL 16
Posted by Mike Florio on April 11, 2008, 3:23 p.m.
Well, I’m in the awkward position of having to contradict something that was posted by MDS while I was tending to other non-PFT business (I had Earl, 30 Rock, The Office, and Scrubs on DVR). But since MDS was merely repeating something that was posted elsewhere, I don’t feel so bad about it.
Anyway, agent Chad Speck says that the report that receiver Malcolm Kelly will run the 40-yard dash in Atlanta on Sunday without scouts present is flat-out wrong. Instead, Speck says that Kelly will run again, for scouts, on April 16 in Oklahoma.
Kelly will run on the Astroturf surface on which he’d been preparing to run before this week’s Pro Day workout, during which he ultimately ran on FieldTurf. Though Kelly presumably realizes that scouts will add time to his outcome on the faster surface, there’s a chance that, even with added time, his final number will come out faster on the surface on which he feels more comfortable.
The fact that Kelly is running again at Oklahoma suggests that an effort has been made between the player and the program to mend fences. Even though it wasn’t wise for Kelly to bad-mouth his school, it’s also not good for Oklahoma to be perceived as unfriendly to the pro prospects of its recruits, or its recruits will end up going elsewhere.
Thank you to all donated to the Jason Witten Camp drive!

Nice.
I hate the Sooners more than anything and I hope this hurts their recruiting.

Somebody stop this kid. This is beyond ridiculous.
What's next? He runs a 4.9 and then shoots the stop-watch guy, sues the shoe manufacturer and then douses himself with gasoline and strikes a match?

I hope, at the end of the day, that the kid has a great career, no matter who he winds up with, just so he can laugh in the face of all the people who assumed he couldn't play ball.
Not saying that will actually happen, just hoping it will, cause I actually like Kelly.
