I'd start with checking to make sure they are properly adjusted and making sure that your e-brake releases properly (assuming you use it). My e-brake was causing my pass rear brake to drag because the cable was sticking. I used penetrating fluid and worked the cable without it hooked up to free it up, re-installed and no more dragging brakes.
