Try this:

declare @procName varchar(500)
declare cur cursor 

for SELECT 'DROP PROCEDURE [' + SCHEMA_NAME(p.schema_id) + '].[' + p.NAME + ']'
FROM sys.procedures p 
open cur
fetch next from cur into @procName
while @@fetch_status = 0
begin
    exec( @procName )
    fetch next from cur into @procName
end
close cur
deallocate cur
