stuck caliper piston?....

so i realized today that while i drive slowly with my windows down...foot of the brake and gas, just drifting, ihear a very mild grinding. not a constant grinding but a pulsing griding...i just hear it, dont feel it in either of the petals. my guess is either warped rotors or a stuck caliper piston.. what do u all think? ps. front driver side

Have you jacked it up, spun the wheels to see if you can replicate and narrow down the sound?

If it's mild and 'pulsing', it's likely just one of the dust shields.
