clunking/grinding noise in rear passenger wheel.

I have a clunking/grinding noise when the wheel is spun. don't think its the bearing, as it is not a constant noise. caliper and brake pads are still on. Video link is posted.
 
The high scraping noise sounds like something rubning on the stone guard and the repeated thunk could be a stone embedded in the back of the disc. I've had that happen.
 
Sounds like the pad is rubbing against the rotor, though it could be something else. As long as it's not causing significant resistance when spinning the wheel, no big deal.

based on the uneven wear on that rotor, assuming you still have rotor and pad left, it looks like you should take apart your calipers for a service, lube the sliding pins
 
Remove the caliper and bracket - take those out of the equation. Then, check the hub again. Also, make sure the rear splash guard isn't contacting anywhere.
