Professional career

He spent his first two seasons at left tackle, and then was moved to left guard.[1] He was named to the Pro Bowl team in 1964 and 1967.[1] He was traded to the Buffalo Bills before the 1972 season in exchange for guard Joe O'Donnell.[2][3][4] Goode missed the entire 1972 season after suffering a knee injury during preseason.[4][5] He was traded to the Miami Dolphins before the 1973 season in exchange for defensive tackle Mike Kadish, who had been Miami's first round draft pick the prior season.[4] He served as the Dolphins long snapper for field goals and extra points, as well as a backup offensive lineman, for the Dolphins champion team in 1973.[6][7][8] After receiving little playing time in 1974, Goode retired prior to the 1975 season.[9]
