That discussion should be between Federer and Sampras in my opinion. Maybe Nadal and Djokovic could play for the bronze in the GOAT bracket.
I don't think you can really compare across generations, so the whole GOAT thing is silly IMO, but if you want to talk about it you have to include Borg in the discussion.
Even with retiring at the ridiculous age of 26 his stats are up there.

To me, Fed passes the eye test better than any of those guys, without being the absolute best at any one thing, unless you count gracefulness of movement - he moves with the greatest economy of motion that I've ever seen, though not many would argue he is the fastest. If you asked for one guy, in his prime to win one big-stage match on grass (i.e. a Wimbledon final), would it be Fed or Sampras (or even Borg)? If you asked guy in his prime to win on clay - no doubt its Rafa. Hard - Fed, Sampras, Djoker, Agassi?? Annnd...you one has to wonder how the guys at the dawn of the open era and into the 80's would've done with the new racquets. Very interesting discussion.
