Could well be> its worth checking the pads. Theres normally about 2 or 3mm left on the pad when they start to rub. as a temp fix to get rid of the noise the tags can be cut off. only 1 pad per side has the steel tag. Ofcourse ultimatly if there worn they need replacing

impossible to say without seeing them. could be many things. Wheel bearing for instance. Stcky piston in one of the calipers, even disc backplate/stone guard rubbing on disc
