Default new brakes rubbing

the driver rear brake seem to be rubbing or scraping more than all the other brakes. I have not driven on these new brakes yet but when i spin the rotor i hear a rubbing sound and there are small marks on the rotor. the other rotors make very little noise and dont scrape much when spun. Is this something that will readjust itself when i ve got the car all done and when i first apply the brakes?

If you havent stepped on the brakes yet then the other pistons and pads may not be in contact yet. Pump the brake pedal a few times and then try it again.
