The problem you describe is a classic sign of brakes that need adjustment and you haven't properly adjusted the brakes yet. You tighten each adjuster until the wheel locks and you can't turn it; then you back off 3 clicks. Drum brakes drag. It is normal.

I don't think it is a problem with bleeding. Air bubbles make the pedal feel spongy.
