Then, there were plans to tweak the dropback so that it indeed could be broken out of at an earlier point. However, I don't remember reading clarification that it would indeed be a mandatory three steps. It's a delicate balance b/c as much as people don't want to be forced into bad throws for blitzes, fades, etc, I don't want the CPU or a potential human opponent to easily interrupt their dropback for an accurate pass either.

I do remember him saying he was going to move the breaking point of the drop up so you could get out of it sooner.
