I've used only 1 extralight model, but from my experience with thorns, I'd bet $15 that they won't protect sufficiently for your tastes against goatheads. Pre-Stan's and Orange Seal, I used Kojaks (35 labeled/32 actual) on a couple of my road bikes; the puncture belt sufficed to keep goathead punctures down to about 1 every 30 miles, which I considered to be the preferable commuting and errand choice to riding dog tires; I went through most of a yearly purchase of 200 Remas a year, though of course this use included other bikes with other tires, some of which were 23 mm wide racing tires and got slightly fewer miles per flat than the Kojaks but not hugely so; and 60 mm Big Apples, which had a really effective puncture belt, and which would be punctured by goatheads much less frequently, tho' they weren't flat free -- but the BAs weigh literally 2X what my current fat tires weigh.
The only systems I've found to be almost 100% proof against thorns are: Modern Stan's and Orange Seal, used with as light a tire as you like (175 gram 559 X 28s; 450 gram 722 X 60s) -- tubeless for lower pressures, tubed with sufficient road-like pressures -- tubeless works somewhat better; or the pre-sealant standard around here, which was a heavy, heavy, belted tire with thorn proof tube (2 lb in 700C C 50 size, no kidding, but you can get them for 25s-28s) + tire liner + Slime. Result = bow wow.
The local roadies used to cut the beads off a used racing tire and use that as a liner between tube and new tire; gain, too woofy for me.
II haven't used Big Apples for years, but they do reduce your puncture repair to I'd guess about 1 about every 100 miles, this on pavement where the hard surface seems to push the thorn through the casing. On dirt, I've very often come out with literally dozens of thorns in front and rear tread, brushed them off, and ridden away without air loss. 60 mm, 15 to 20 psi, normal tube, no sealant.
