It's not.

Walter Football projected his 40 time to be 4.6, but he went well past that at Georgia Pro Day. He did not run at the Combine.
I do wonder if his agent convinced him to try to add some weight to appeal to being a safety given his slower speed but good ball skills.

NFL.com's Lance Zierlein compared Kendrick to former Bengals DB Darius Phillips.
I actually think that's a fair comparison.
Phillips was never a fast guy, but he was an adequate slot CB and some thought he should be converted to safety.
Like Kendrick, Phillips was a former WR converted to DB and had good ball skills as a DB.
