Quick way of moving multiple clips in browser to timeline STACKED?

(I'm producing a virtual music video with dozens of individual videos that will be tiled.)

All of those individual videos are in my browser. Is there an easy one-click way to add them all to the timeline STACKED (i.e. one on top of the other)? Once that's done, I will resize and crop each as necessary.

If I select all and drag to the timeline, they all get added sequentially (i.e. west to east). I need them stacked (i.e. north to south).

Just wondering if there's a shortcut available for this. Dragging 100+ clips manually is a pain in the neck.
