My league has 12 teams, six keepers each. Our keeper deadline was last Wednesday, and Joe Nathan made a roster. Now he's out, my guilt is telling me to let the guy drop him, but my Stalin-like dictatorship tells me this will open a disasterous can of worms. Any thoughts?

No way. Deadlines are deadlines. If you start bending rules for one, you must do so for all.
If you allow this, just wait to see what other owners might ask you to do. Injuries are a integral part about all fantasy sports

Count me in with your Stalin side. It stinks but rules are rules. Like DaSh said once you open the box and start bending the rules its usually impossible to stop without getting some managers angry. Better to just stick to the rules.
Disaster. Come up with a rule change suggestion, run it by all league members, and implement for next year if you want to give guys flexibility with keepers in the event of injury or other serious value changing events.

This. In fact, by being proactive and putting it out there as a suggestion for next year for the league to decide on, you don't look like the bad guy. Always stick to the rules.
