Check the brake dust shields, you may have accidentally bent one and it's rubbing against the rotor.

Man, not to be an ***...but check to see if the pads are installed with the metal backing to the rotor. You laugh, but I have seen it. If so, turn them around the right way and go chew the *** of whoever put 'em on.

Check the audible wear indicators, maybe one of those are bent.
