The USC commit is one of the top tackle prospects on the west coast and holds tons of upside at the next level with plenty of growth potential. He is an elite athlete with the frame, length and fluidity to be a possible Sunday type guy. He finds himself as the third ranked tackle in the state and a top 25 overall prospect in our rankings update. Look for the Folsom product to have a huge senior season for what is a loaded roster and offensive line, with a few transfers being added as well.

Dyakonov has turned into one of the premier 2026 offensive tackles on the west coast, and for good reason. He is technically sound with elite athleticism and movement abilities in space while dominating the highest level of competition in Northern California and is the ideal size and length for the tackle position at the P4 level. He has recently seen his recruitment explode, picking up offers from Ole Miss, Michigan State, UCLA, Washington and CAL all within the last couple of weeks and he is already a national recruit that should be a 25+ offer guy by the time it’s all said and done.

Dyakonov is only going into his Junior season, but should have a breakout year for the Bulldogs and a huge off-season this winter and spring. He has elite size and length at 6’6″ and change, and is a natural bender that moves extremely well for his size, has violent hands and finishes downfield while seemingly comfortable blocking in space through the second level and when pulling. After being offered by Minnesota earlier this week, he is up to four offers and should be a 15+ offer kid by the time it’s all said and done.

Dyakonov is part of a loaded Folsom team in 2024 that should be on their way to playing deep into December, as they are loaded at every position. He should fit in nicely at either tackle spot for the Bulldogs and is a violent blocker that finishes downfield and brings extreme athleticism to the offensive line, especially for a rising Junior. Vlad has elite length and athleticism for the tackle position and shows patient hands in pass protection while able to post when needed and can win against both speed and power rushers. On tape he flashes a quick first step off the ball and quickly gets defenders off the LOS while able to pull across the LOS with ease and has a nasty finish. Holding one offer from UNLV already, he should rack in FBS offers over the next few months and will be one of the top tackles across the state over the next two years.
