Off the top of my head, Justin Tuck.
I'm sure I'll think of more later.

Soooooo true. Also, isn't Tommie Harris still on his rookie contract?

Yes, he's in the last year of his deal. He's in search of a deal similar to Dwight Freeney's six-year, $72 million contract. So not a bargain for much longer lol.

Most good candidates are probably starters playing on their rookie contracts, having been drafted after the 1st round. Say like a Lance Briggs pre-2007, or Marques Colston right now.

That's why I like Bills2083's suggestion of Justin Tuck. A player who the Giants were smart with and resigned him for relatively cheap before the offseason.

The eagles love doing this. Not sure about the specifics but Shawn Andrews is definitely a bargain.

Tuck was recently signed to a 5-year, $30M deal I believe? That's a pretty good deal, considering he could start for a number of teams and we're seeing crazy jack being thrown around.

The contract Gates signed was his second, after his breakout year. Amazing bargain for the Chargers.

Considering all the big contracts being handed out by Al Davis lately the five-year, $17.5 million deal to Derrick Burgess easily makes him one of our best bargains along with all those other rookie deals.
