I just did a quick search on Newegg for gig cards and came up with this.  
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=33-127-134&depa=0
as just one of probably many that are supported (that's the only one I
checked).  That one in particular does support jumbo frames, and does
have FreeBSD driver support.

I'm sure there are probably a number of other cheap cards on Newegg
that'll work.  Remember with NIC's though, you get what you pay for. 
If you really need high throughput, the $150+ USD cards are going to
suit you much better than the $20 ones.  The cheaper cards will flood
your system with interrupts under heavy load and max out your CPU long
before the more expensive cards will.  The price difference comes
largely from the capabilities of the card, where cheap ones offload
most everything to the CPU, more expensive ones can do more without
CPU involvement.

Not sure.
