I have a funny feeling that Hagrid might be killed by his own mother, 
Fridwulfa. The signs seem to be there. Hagrid's steady, unwavering 
love for dangerous, deadly creatures. His loneliness and isolation 
due to his heritage and lack of family. The fact that the giants 
allied with LV last time around and aren't known for having a soft 
side.

Now that Hagrid and Madame Maxime have been sent as an envoy to the 
giants Hagrid is bound to run into his long lost mother. What will 
happen? Who knows. But to me it doesn't look good for Hagrid or his 
mum.

P.S. Your theory is very good and points out several similarities 
that I'd never have noticed.
