Brake noise after deep water

So here in NY we got slammed with water and everything is flooded. So just the other day I was backing my boat into a local lake at the ramp and because the water was so high, the water came up almost to the top of the tires(315/75/16) so it was fairly deep. Bad idea looking back but I didn't realize it till it was to late.

But now when I stop I'm getting this horrible metal rubbing sound that echos out, best way to describe it. I have new EBC rotors and Yellow pads on it (maybe 5-10k miles) and both new front calipers just for the record. I just don't know what this could be? It doesn't sound like the pad is worn and its grinding, it literally sounds like metal is rubbing on metal and it's echoing.

PS. And before someone mentions it, I drained the rear right after all this.

That's what my PS was for. I drained the rear the day that happened.

check to see if you have debris caught in the brakes. boat ramps can be nasty with stuff at times. you might have some trash caught in there

Just finished that. Pulled every wheel off... found nothing other than my new EBC rotors full of hairline cracks which is making me upset and that one of my rear calipers is frozen Still no idea about the noise. It's very weird.
