Brakes pull slightly to the right

I just got done changing my oil, greasing the fittings, and putting new pads on the front.

I start down the street, and as I hit the brakes, wow big difference from the worn out old ones, but it starts to turn to the right a little bit and I hit the brake pedal.

Do you guys think I should just drive for a couple more days and just see if the pads needed to be broken in? Or is my left caliper failing?

It's either that or the brakeline is pinched.

No I did not get the disc's cut. Is there any other downsides to what's going on besides the pull to the right and excessive tire wear? I'll jack my truck up and make sure the brake line isn't getting pinched at all.
