Matt,
Could be a lot of things. Your best tool here is an automotive stethescope to help pinpoint the noise. I have seen loose torque converter bolts do this, I have seen exhaust pipes hitting frame, exhaust leak, broken transmission mount.
Poke around and listen closely to try and pinpoint. Put emerg brake on put in gear and listen to engine.
