The film ends with the 2009 NFL Draft, showing the real Michael Oher being drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in the first round. A montage of photographs of Oher and the real Tuohys follows, with Oher's success in the NFL detailed. The end credits include a dedication to director John Lee Hancock's father, a football player and coach who died in 2009.

Personally, I really was fascinated by this movie because it shows how difficult it can become life as like Michael Oher´s life and as you can go out and finish good with it.
