I'm throwing this out there right now that.. (possible future spoilers, read at your own risk or if you're a comic fan that is long past this entire arc)
Glenn will not die in the Season 6 Finale.
If anything, that Polaroid collection sealed his fate in terms of surviving because it's WAY too on the nose and at this point, it'd just be giving comic fans what they expect which I feel would be 100% cheap and a complete disservice to his original death in the 100th issue.
In addition, what made Glenn's original death so heartbreaking for many of the comic fans was that he was a damn Saint, having not killed a single solitary living person at all. On top of that, he was the big fan favorite so it was easy to justify him dying in such a brutal and unexpected fashion. In Sunday's episode, however, he KILLED multiple Saviors and despite it killing him inside, he did it without hesitation for Heath and to ensure his own survival. There's too much there wasted should he get killed off.
Last comment about Glenn: You mean to tell me that Glenn will look at the Polaroids, realize what damage Lucille will do (when its introduced along with Negan), and yet still be the one to take it? No way. Just like with Noah, he will be forced to watch the gruesome death with no way of escaping it.
As for who I think will take his infamous death? Daryl. With his new show on AMC set to be filming soon, and the addition of Jesus, this could easily be their way of weening off the crazy fangirls from rioting if Daryl dies with advertising Norman Reedus' new show and putting Jesus in that spot. To add, he's the fan favorite just like comic Glenn was, so it just makes sense.
As for a dark horse prediction? Maggie (despite all the future character building they've been doing with her and the Hilltop)
