 From Merriam-Webster's online dictionary:

"obsolete: no longer in use or no longer useful."

Yes, if something is obsolete it is to be dropped. You are confusing 
obsolete with obsolescent:

"obsolescent: going out of use : becoming obsolete"

If it's obsolescent, deprecate it. If it's obsolete, get rid of it.
