Default 1989 cadillac deville brakes

I recently changed both Calipers and Pads on a 1989 Cadillac Deville because the front Passengers side Caliper appeared to be stuck. After Changing and bleeding lines and checking for kinks in the brake lines I took it for a test ride only to find out I still had the same problem.The front right side pad was sticking and smoking. Could this be a Master cylinder problem? Any help would be appreciated.

Replace both front brake hoses to the calipers. They flake off internally blocking return brake fluid flow. Then have the system professionaly flushed.
