right front brake draging after brake job

I turned the rotors and put new pads on the front of my 93 civic DX. Now the passenger side is dragging. I can smell it after every time i drive it. It worked fine before i did the brakes. Any ideas of what it could be?

Caliper could be sticking. Did you fully push the piston back in before you put everything back together?
