With Jack having been revealed to indeed have an ancient zoan mammoth fruit, this opens up the possibility that maybe all of "The Calamities" may be ancient zoans, or perhaps just have an ancient animal theme. Which makes me wonder, could X Drake be one of them?
I mean it doesn't seem too far-fetched, though X Drake has only been on Kaido's crew for two years it's important to remember that Ace had only been on Whitebeard's crew for 2-3 years before being promoted to 2nd Division Comander. It's entirely possible that X Drake could have risen the ranks and became a captain and one of the top three members of Kaido's army.
This is the New World after all, even Zoro said during the Fishman Island arc, that if Luffy wasn't capable enough he would have had to step down as captain. Which is an important mentality to have for the strongest sea, if you're not strong enough your position will be usurped, and that sentimentality won't get you anywhere.
So could X Drake have taken the position of one of The Calamities? Let's look at his character...
So is it possible he's become the third "calamity"? I think there's a high probability of this. But, with the other point I highlighted I think we should consider the possibility of him defecting from Kaido's crew and joining the SH alliance. This would leave a huge hole in Kaido's crew, especially if it left one of his subordinate crews leaderless. Meaning the chances for the Strawhat alliance to beat Kaido would undoubtedly rise. Which is something that definitely needs to happen if they want to have a chance at winning.
Now if Jack (Mammoth), and Drake (T-Rex) make up the first two calamities, who is the third? I believe there's a few probabilities. And of course this is all just baseless speculation but I'm going to state my opinions anyways.
1. A female with the Saber Tooth Tiger devil fruit (Neko Neko no Mi: Model Saber Tooth Tiger). After all we need more strong female characters. Could perhaps be the Calamity of Death.
2. A male with a pterodactyl fruit. This would give Kaido's crew a tactical aerial advantage for flight based combat. Could perhaps be the Calamity of Hurricanes.
3. Now this one is an oddball, but, how about a Megoladon Shark Fishman? This wouldn't involve the use of a devil fruit. Besides Jinbei and Tiger Fisher there's not really any impressively strong Fishman characters. I think this would make for an awesome character, and maybe add a little more diversity for Kaido's crew. Also it would make sense to have a character with an affinity for water on his crew. Could perhaps be the Calamity of Flood?
Anyways, this is it for my theory. This isn't really something that I've dedicated a lot of time thinking about, just a collection of ideas that came to mind when reading the chapter this morning. Most of this is raw conjecture on my part, but I hope that if anything it's at least an entertaining notion to think about. Thanks for reading guys

Before he made his debut as one of the supernova, he had already attained the position of Rear Admiral for the Marines before defecting and becoming a pirate. This tells me two things.
1. He is someone who seems to be familiar with rising through the ranks of whatever organization he is a part of.
2. He's also used to defecting from an organization if it seems beneficial to him. He's done it once with the Diez Barrels pirates, and again with the Marines.
