I need to do that for my project. Here is how I did it:

columns.Bound(o => o.Role).ClientTemplate(
                Html.Telerik().DropDownList()
                    .Name("RoleList<#= UserID #>")
                    .BindTo(new SelectList(UserController.GetRoles()))
                    .ToHtmlString()
            );

The static method GetRoles returns a simple IEnumerable of String. You still can return a custom object by using a different SelectList constructor to specify Value and Text property of your custom object. 

new SelectList(UserController.GetCustomRoles(), "RoleID", "ShortName")

You can set the template of the column to embed arbitrary HTML. If using Ajax binding - try the client template. The following online examples will be helpful:

  1. Server templates
  2. Client templates
