big video project many clips - is it better to storyboard on paper first?

I've got a lot of footage logged from about 40 hours worth. I'm considering my next step with the aim towards getting a rough cut of the footage I've marked as being good and worthwhile of being in the film. At this stage I've got a lot of clips that need organising and then seeing as there is limited horizontal space on the time line, whats the best way to go about lining up the clips. For example if I decide to change the sequence of clips, how do I get all the clips after it to take up the gap? I'm very new to editing. Would it be a better idea to storyboard out as much as possible first on pen and paper before getting into Premiere in a big way. My day job is already quite screen based, so I'm looking to minimise my time spent thinking AND at the computer.
