Meat should be thawed out in the refrigerator, not on the counter overnight. Or quick-thaw methods could be used followed immediately by cooking.
If you can guarantee that no part of the meat got above 40°F, then I could say it might be safe - and that would be assuming the meat was good when it was frozen. Otherwise, you will have to make the decision.
