Default Can someone tell me whats wrong?!?!

Earlier today i was driving around in an outdoor park...regular paved roads and what not...I started my car as usual, took off the ebrake and put it in drive..i started moving and about 3 feet later i felt a thud and my front drivers side tire started dragging so i stopped backed up a little then checked under the car...nothing there...so i just continued to drive normally. I now can hear a slight sound occasionally coming from the front driver tire but i hear a constant sound coming from one of the rear tires..i think it's the drivers side. it gets louder and slower as i slow down but the faster i go the less you can hear it. Also there is unusual wear on the front drivers side tire...about twice what the other tires have...could it be the differential?? you guys know better than i do so all replies are more than welcomed!!!
