The Arizona Cardinals continue their work preparing for the NFL draft and were present for Notre Dame’s pro day on Thursday. It would appear they have some interest in their offensive line prospects.
According to Jim Nagy, who is the executive director of the Senior Bowl, noted several teams had offensive line coaches present to see prospects Liam Eichenberg, Robert Hainsey and Aaron Banks.
The Cardinals were one of them, which presumably means it was offensive line coach and run game coordinator Sean Kugler.
At least six other teams were present for their workout.

Eichenberg is the top prospect for the Fighting Irish. He started three seasons at left tackle but some feel he can play both tackle spots at the next level. His pro comp on NFL.com is Cardinals guard Justin Pugh.
Most mock drafts do not have Eichenberg as a mid-first round pick where the Cardinals select and he might be gone by the time their selection comes up in the second round.
Banks played guard. He is 6-5 and 325 pounds and quite athletic.
Hainsey started three years at right tackle. He is 6-4 and 306 pounds and won’t likely come off the board until Day 3 of the draft.
