Take a good look at the pads, if one is worn much more than the other your caliper is frozen. The caliper must be free to move from side to side to align with the rotor, if it's frozen only the piston side pad will work and it will very likely drag. Verify that the sleeve over the caliper mounting bolt is free to slide back and forth in the caliper body.

Thanks for all the help-- Grumpyone
If the difference in the pads thickness is about two to one it's very likely the mounting sleeves are stuck in the caliper and need to be freed.
