Brakes binding

I installed a new set of pads and rotors on the front of my car. One side seems to have s bit more drag on the brakes when lifted evenly. I have regreased the back of the pads and the caliper slide. Any other suggestions?

I'd maybe check your caliper and make sure the one on the side that seems to be dragging isn't dirty/gummed up.
