Those you listed do all that. Even, Lamar.... Lamar is known for his running but his pocket presence is underrated. Tua? I'm not sure on him yet as this is his 2nd year but... Allen, rodgers, lamar, mahomes are all dropback QBs....

Those guys make quick plays and passes from the pocket. It's extremely rare you're seeing those guys drop back five steps and standing in the pocket to make those explosive plays. All of those guys are movers. 

Those guys consistently flush out of the pocket, dance around and make plays that a traditional drop back and pass it from the pocket QB cannot make. A lot of those are by design as well. QB Bail, WR/TE/RB find the opening in the secondary, sit and let the QB locate you. 

That's been going on now for a good decade it feels like.

A dropback is simply the QB backing away from the line of scrimmage post-snap. The purpose of this is generally to give the QB more time to throw and you'll generally see either a three-, five- or seven-step drop. What this means is exactly what it sounds like - after the QB receives the hand-off, he takes either three, five or seven steps back depending on the play. A play that takes longer to develop (like a deep pass) means a bigger dropback. But Lamar, Rodgers, Mahomes are asked to do these things all the time. They arent "consistently" asked to move out, they do that because the can sense pressure....

Tannehill, Carr, Alex Smith and even Garopolo arent dropback QBs. They are one dimensional and they are only good at stepping up when attacking the middle of the field they cannot make other passes in the pocket and lack that.
