Chevrolet Blazer Brakes Problem

I changed my brake pads, thought my calipers might be bad because my brakes seemed to be locking up during normal driving. I changed the caliper bracket and the caliper... but, the new caliper wouldn't seal with the brake line when tightened. I put the old caliper back on bled the brakes a bit and returned the new calipers. I thnk the old calipers are ok. but now I have a new problem: Even though my brake fluid resevoir is full the brake pedal goes to the floor. Do I just need to bleed my brakes a little more? Or did I screw something else up?
