A couple of videos on the straight 3 and 5 step drop appear next. They are not bad for the basic idea. A few details get overlooked, however. A right handed QB should pull that left foot back a little bit to increase the push back distance from the line of scrimmage on the first step. Basically, the toe of the left foot should be toward the middle of the right foot.
Another detail that is sometimes added is that some quarterbacks take a false step with that left foot. Meaning: the QB will pick that foot up and then put it right back down again without moving anywhere. A wasted step. To prevent this, I know some QB coaches tell their players to turn that left toe inward a little bit. This pigeon-toe move keeps the player from false stepping.
